LIMA, Peru — The unusually intact fossilized skull of a giant, toothed sea bird that died millions of years ago was found on Peru’s arid southern coast, researchers said Friday.

The fossil is the best-preserved cranium ever found of a pelagornithid, a family of large seabirds believed to have gone extinct some three million years ago, said Rodolfo Salas, head of vertebrate paleontology at Peru’s National History Museum.
