I hope at least one link works

These little buggers would have been a little easier to handle
than their parents.
Can you imagine running around in their world with not much
more than a spear

Yikes
The folks from this area are supposed to be the ancestors of
the native Americans.

The links don't work but you can google the sentence above the link and get the website.

Just me but I hate it when they give names to dead animals especially 10,000 year old ones. I guess it is an animal rights/treehugger thing.

Sorry about the links. It's a crap shoot if they work or not.
I usualy just paste them into my browser.
Eric, I think the names appeal to the ladies more.
And of course they are just newborns.
Maybe, Uyan means Killer and Dina means Man Eater!
