The OsteoDontoKeratic Culture
The Osteodontokeratic (ODK for short) is a technological and cultural hypothesis first proposed by Raymond A. Dart in 1957, based on fossils recovered from the South African cave site of Makapansgat. Dart proposed that the extinct hominin species Australopithecus prometheus were predatory, cannibalistic meat eaters, and specialized hunters. He suggested that they manufactured and used a toolkit based on the bones (osteo), teeth (donto), and horns…
Bushmeat Hunting, Wildlife Declines, and Fish Supply in West Africa
The multibillion-dollar trade in bushmeat is among the most immediate threats to the persistence of tropical vertebrates, but our understanding of its underlying drivers and effects on human welfare is limited by a lack of empirical data. We used 30 years of data from Ghana to link mammal declines to the bushmeat trade and to spatial and temporal changes in the availability of fish. We show that years of poor fish supply coincided with increased …
Parental Care and Adult Aggression toward Juvenile Snowshoe Hares
The early life of the snowshoe hare was studied through observations and experiments involving penned and wild hares. Parental care was limited to the adult female. Her care extended only to lactation and possibly to some guarding of her offspring. The leverets gathered at the birth/nursing site 1-2 hours after sunset and suckled immediately upon the arrival of the female for 2-5 minutes. The leverets born in the pens gained 17.1 g per day for th…
