How crazy; the biggest basilosaurid; Perucetus has been found recently and now the smallest!

Nice. Only 2.5m/8.2ft long, though as a sub-adult I wonder if Tut was fully-grown for its kind? At that size a figurine of it would be great to have, since archaeoceti are criminally under-represented in toy form despite how much we know about their evolution.
