I should point out that there is a slight inaccuracy in the commentary. It is not simply the case that the hard cartilaginous tissues are more decay resistant; in fact, the organisms studied in the paper (unlike the adult lamprey shown here) have very few cartilaginous tissues. The decay bias is observed WITHIN the soft tissues: the informative soft tissues decay before the less informative soft tissues.

I'm pretty sure the study taught them other things. Who doesnt know that the organs and tissue decay before bone/cartilage?
Summarizing an entire study into one sentence often leaves alot of information out. That is the point of the summary.

time to reconsider Evolution for some animals. Good idea!
They're just now figuring this out? Isn't this sort of thing just blatantly obvious?
