I may have mentioned before, but after 35 years of training in gyms, mainly to build strength, I'm convinced that there isn't a simple gradation in human...
Rugby matches are generally rowdy but good-natured; rival fans mingle in the stands. Â At football (soccer) matches on the other hand, there is an endless...
I'm inclined to agree. Shaun Ellis's experiments infiltrating a wolf pack, show how similar the two species could become. His partner Helen has since joined...
I did see a program on, I think, National Geographic Channel a couple of years ago in which a researcher or filmmaker (probably the latter) got close to a pack...
Paul: You may be right(my experience in gyms is fairly limited, but when I'm there, I've noticed "stuff"). OTOH, there's a lot of pressure nowadays, largely...
Paul: I don't know about the "wolfishness" of human nature(or the "humanness" of wolf nature, for that matter); wolf personalities, even within a pack of...
All: And it's quite entertaining: http://johnhawks.net/weblog/fossils/lower/turkana/ileret-footprints- 2009.html As well as being worth reading, Anne G...
"Biochemical analysis of blood and other protein residue revealed the tools were used to butcher camels, horses, sheep and bears. That proves that the Clovis...
Hi Anne,  Lions are obviously so strong that even a bit of boisterous play could be fatal to a human. Hyaenas are about wolf-sized as you say, but their...
Paul: Wow! I've been "into" wolves for a very long time, but I don't think I would be able to allow a wolf to do that "initiation acceptance" around my...
Hi Anne,  As a wolf-lover you'll be fascinated by the stuff Shaun Ellis is doing. National Geographic have filmed a lot of his work and it's worth keeping...
Hello All, Today, I had the idea of working a day and then spend the earned money on some nice books about Anthropology and especially paleoanthropology ...
"....the scans could tell more about how Lucy's bones fit together — and thus whether she and her kind climbed trees as well as walked"....  Well, I can...
I don't know what it is about your posts, but when Yahoo emails them out, it sometimes puts the group's recent activity block and other stuff on top of your...
I think I've seen a picture or two from another source. Has this guy ever worked with wild wolves, though? Not, mind you, that this sort of study isn't...
Dave: I have absolutely no clue as to why Yahoo does these things. I've noticed them, too. And I've also noticed that, with some posts, I can't "snip" long...
... ===================================== Gee, and all those times you waggled your cyberfinger I pictured you as someone like the Warrior Princess. Thinking...
Dale,  My point was, I don't think strength follows the same distribution curve as, say, height. We see some really tall people, some really short ones,...
... Do you mean that one peak retains ancient robust phenotypic strength and the other reflects more recent modern phenotypic endurance under lesser loads,...
Hi Dale  It's a fair point that a gym is hardly a random sample of the population anyway, so you may well be right. Perhaps two distinctly different types...
