There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Looking at the intermediate features, it could be about 1 mya old. The mandible has the anterior dental shift of P. t. oxygnatha and the curvature and dental ratios of P. t. trinilensis, clearly showing that it is of an intermediate form. Sangiran can go as far back 1.66 mya and Trinil as recent as 500 kya. That would put this new specimen somewhere in the middle.
