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.
The Cave Bear Story... Finally, still looking at the skulls in side view, note the lower border of the jaw. If you imagine these skulls resting on the top of a table, the skull of the brown bear would rest firmly on its straight lower jaw. That of the cave bear, in contrast, would be a veritable rocking chair. In a way this characteristic gives the final touch to the cave bear skull as a sort of curved and bulging thing, as if you had taken a cleanly proportioned brown bear skull and blown it up unevenly into a bizarre caricature. It has a distinct significance, and we get to that by considering the purposes there are to a bear's head.
