#13 – Tuatara
These rare, small-sized reptiles considered to be the only surviving members of the Sphenodontia family, which was represented by many species during the age of the dinosaurs. However, all these species disappeared, except the tuatara. This fact makes them one of the most ancient animals in the world.
