The petroglyphs (which just happened to have survived in the open air; humans have probably been painting and/or etching stuff on walls for a long, long time, but most of it weathered away) show these and other critters (now extinct in Arabia) along the purported “out of Africa” route. I don’t buy into “out of Africa”. The million year old fossil skull shows a transitional forum between the 2.5 million year old fossil from old ancestors’ barbeques and living species.

...humans have been eating Bos since the beginnings of the genus Homo...

And yet, we're advised that eating red meat is unnatural and bad for us...

I think that's only because they hadn't yet discovered Tofu. Or, maybe not.

Probably football too. Nothin’ too farfetched about games having a prehistory. :’)

Don’t know the answer to that. I am wondering wher one can go get a real good Bronto Burger or T-Rex steak.

I read a book whose main theory was that man evolved because of cannibalism—specifically brain eating—which tended to increase the brain of the brain eaters.

So if you’re very very smart...

On occasion, Jaluumba would surprise his bride by bringing home a couple of nice juicy steaks for dinner.

If you work at it long enough, some actually gets into the mouth. We have a baby picture of one of my daughters looking like this after her big brother was "helping" her at mealtime.

The ones at Ponderosa only go back 1.5 million years....to the dawn of the era of horse racing.

There is no such things as a male species of bull or anything else.

I beg to differ.
