New Publication: 'Luzon predators: Clues from a fossil with bite marks' by Meyrick U. Tablizo et al

March 5, 2024
New paper published in Annales de Paléontologie. The ancient predatory guild of Luzon (Philippines) remains obscure. A fragmentary deer tibia with bite marks from a Pleistocene paleochannel deposit in La Union Province opens the possibility of a Crocodile or another yet unknown predator as responsible agent.
