Mammals of the Pleistocene era
Mammals of the Pleistocene era. Artwork showing wildlife believed to have existed in the Northern Iberian Peninsula during the Upper Pleistocene era (125, 000 to 10, 000 years before present). These include horses (Equus caballus, left), woolly mammoths (Mammuthus primigenius, centre) and a woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis, right). At centre right, cave lions (Panthera leo) are eating a reindeer (Rangifer tarandus)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the diverse and magnificent wildlife that once roamed the Northern Iberian Peninsula during the Upper Pleistocene era. The artwork, meticulously created by Science Photo Library, transports us back in time to a period between 125,000 to 10,000 years before present. In this vivid illustration, we are introduced to an array of fascinating creatures. On the left stands a graceful horse (Equus caballus), its powerful presence emanating from every muscle. In the center, towering above all else, is a woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) with its long tusks curving majestically towards the sky. To its right is a formidable woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis), adorned with thick fur and fearsome horns. At center-right, cave lions (Panthera leo) feast upon their prey - a reindeer (Rangifer tarandus). This scene captures both the beauty and brutality of nature's cycle of life and death. The image evokes awe for these ancient beings who once thrived in this region's tundra-covered plains. It serves as a reminder of our planet's rich biological history and highlights how these remarkable animals adapted to survive in challenging environments during glacial periods. Through this stunning portrayal of fossil animals from late Pleistocene times, Science Photo Library invites us to explore paleontology and zoology while igniting our curiosity about prehistoric life on Earth.
