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.

I put here a photo of chacma baboon, largest extant baboon, when it is standing on hind legs. Even when I compare this real photo to that picture of Rom, for me this creates immediately contradiction between photo and artist´s view. This photo makes me to think, that looks like Rom has made a mistake with measurements and how to use those. I mean it looks like that he has used shoulder height on all fours when it should have been when on hind legs. And in that way he scaled these monkeys up quite a lot. Maybe I am wrong, but it would be nice to get more information if so.

Heh, I actually misunderstood a bit. So this which I shared was from this Rom. But that other picture, where was that gigantic looking drawing next to about 180 cm tall man was really odd looking.
Anyway this picture by Roman Uchytel looks like to give quite good image, what size  these prehistoric ancestors of baboons might have been compared to humans.
