  1. Chinese Cave Mammals

    *Updating in progress*
     
    Here’s my collection of mid-late Pleistocene fossils from the Panda—Stegodon mammalian fauna in southern China, particularly from Guizhou and Guangxi. These consist mainly of isolated teeth, as many bones are eroded in limestone caves. Teeth are better preserved due to their enamel.
     
    Interestingly, many of these teeth resemble those of living animals. But I assure you, they are indeed fossils—if they were modern panda teeth, god knows how many years I'd be sitting in the slammer.
     
    Members of this fauna include:
    Even-toed ungulates (Artiodactyls) let's get the boring species out of the way Pigs, cows, sheep, deer Odd-toed ungulates (Perissodactyls) Only a minimal amount of horses Rhinos Tapirs, which included Tapirus augustus, the biggest tapir ever to live Primates which I don't know anything about Gigantopithecus from the early Pleistocene, the biggest primate ever to live We were also here Elephants such as Stegodon and Asian elephant. Probably Mastodon too but very rare Carnivorans (saving the best for last) Pandas! All three species of pandas were here Sun bear and Asian black bear Hyaenas Dholes (rarely seen) Tigers and leopards Megantereon (I've only seen one Megan tooth coming outta there)
