'''''Ambulocetus''''' ("walking whale") was a semi-aquatic [[mammal]], cited by many evolutionary scientists as a [[transitional form]] between ancient land mammals and modern fully aquatic cetaceans ([[Whale|whales]], [[Dolphin|dolphins]], porpoises). ''Ambulocetus'' resembles a [[crocodile]], and its back legs appear more aquatic than terrestrial. The fossils were found in [[Pakistan]], the same place where ''[[Pakicetus]]'', another claimed transitional form, was found.
