webfact Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 What prehistoric secrets might this Krabi cave hold? By The Nation A physician has urged state agencies to conduct a scientific survey of a Krabi cave where he found fossils of suspected prehistoric Java rhinos and hyenas. The cave in Tambon Ao Luek Nuea could have potential to become a new archaeological site, Dr Samart Srikarn says. He’d been informally surveying Yai Ruak Cave when he came across the ancient specimens and arranged for archaeologists to examine them. They were determined to belong to rhinos and hyenas that might have died as long as 700,000 years ago. Samart said several chambers in the cave had not yet been explored and he believed there could be more fossils awaiting discovery. Niwat Wattanayaporn of the Krabi Cultural Centre probed the cave yesterday and reported finding fossilised fractured bones, likely of the same animal species.

Why should it be a musk deer when the OP said that they were suspected to be prehistoric rhinos and, not or, Hyenas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm not sure myself really. Perhaps you should ask Elon Musk with tongue in cheek, or maybe I am just weird? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
