[QUOTE]Originally posted by DD'eDeN: [QB] Foxes & Human ancestors (cf arctic fox, camouflage) [URL=http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/10/141007144510.htm]source[/URL] Red Foxes from Middle East to Americas 400,000 years The previous view was distorted by the maternal picture because a single female line transferred from Asia to Alaska about 50,000 years ago. The new genetic research further suggests that the first red foxes originated in the Middle East before beginning their journey of colonization across Eurasia to Siberia, across the Bering Strait and into North America, where they eventually founded the North American population. - - - [URL=http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/01/130123115350.htm]source[/URL] Researchers have discovered a 2-million-year-old fossil fox at Malapa, South Africa, in the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site - - - [URL=http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/04/130411142931.htm]source[/URL] "Aside from the 26 authors from 16 institutions involved in these publications, the team focusing its research efforts on Au. sediba and Malapa now numbers more than 100 researchers from around the world and represents one of the largest dedicated archaeological or palaeontological research programmes," says Prof. Loyiso Nongxa, Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of the Witwatersrand. Berger adds that the work undertaken to date, although only five years in the making (since the discovery of the site in mid-2008), represents some of the most extensive focused literature on a single early hominin species yet created. Included in the recent discoveries from the site are a new species of fox, named by the team as Vulpes skinneri just three months ago, and the discovery of more than 300 early human ancestor remains, including parts of skeletons still encased in rock. Berger concludes: "Discoveries such as Australopithecus sediba and the Malapa site demonstrate the need for further African based exploration in the rich fossil fields of southern Africa [/QB][/QUOTE]
