![]() I had so much respect for this guy, now he's nothing to me.ģrd edit/shameless plug: I realized that I'm actually interviewing a primatologist today on my twitch channel about her research and i'm 100% going to ask her about this as well for anyone interested in hearing her answer. Things like this is how paleontologists and archeologists lose priceless finds that could redefine our understanding of the past to private collections and this guy just made it sound like it was acceptable to do. In 1847, the first gorilla skull had been collected and identified. To take such a monumental find, tell no one about it, and smuggle it home is so fucked I can't wrap my head around it almost.

Skull of a Lovelock Cave Giant, compared to a normal human skull. I'm an evolutionary anthropologist with a concentration in primatology, That's 100% a gorilla skull, why the hell is it in British Colombia? That has to be planted and traveling around with body parts of an endangered animal is 100% a no-no. The largest of the great apes, gorillas are stocky animals with broad chests and shoulders, large, human-like hands, and small eyes set into hairless faces.
