Skeleton Shows Neanderthal Kids Grew Up Like Modern Human Children

Analysis of the skeleton of a Neanderthal boy revealed that the primitive relative of modern humans grew much like modern kids do, providing another evidence that the now extinct human species were similar to us. Skeleton Of 7-Year Old Neanderthal In a new study, Antonio Rosas, from the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, and colleagues analyzed the 49,000-year-old skeleton found in the archeological site of El Sidron in Northern Spain to determine how children from the ancient species of humans developed. Christopher Dean, from the University College London, determined the age of the child by counting the daily growth lines in slices of one of the molars.

The chilling revelation came from a study that analyzed the biting power of South American horned frogs, which are the closest living descendants of Beelzebufo. Beelzebufo Ampinga: The Devil Frog The frogs of today do not exactly inspire horror stories, but a certain species of horned frogs in South America, the Ceratophrys cranwelli, are very aggressive and can eat animals that are the same size as they are. Researchers thought that by using the C. cranwelli as their model, they can estimate the biting power of the extinct Beelzebufo, which used to live in Madagascar about 65 million to 70 million years ago. In a paper that was published in the Scientific Reports , the researchers used contraptions known as bite force sensors on small horned frogs. For frogs with heads that m...
