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.
In literal terms, there's no evidence that the Trinil population are very large as the 4 specimens are around 200 kg or less. Though, as I stated before, this sample match well with most of the Ngandong sample, so maybe bigger specimens were present, considering it should be of the same subspecies as the Ngandong sample.
Not sure on the P. spelaea question. I'll have to think about that one. I guess there must've been some difference in predators present as well as the landscape.
