An ancient bone tool, made from a piece of a large animal’s rib, features three curved barbs and a carved tip. The implement was made more than 800,000 years ago, probably by Homo erectus. M. PANTE ET AL/JOURNAL OF HUMAN EVOLUTION 2020

I’m pretty sure I’ve read about some animals who also know how to fashion tools and weapons.
Monkeys, bears, raccoons and even the clever crow.
homo erectus?
Were they on ecstasy?
So.. Mayor Pete?
“ homo erectus?”
Otherwise known as Hunter
Homo erectus crafted this to pick their noses.
So what they are saying is that the use of bone tools predated the evolution of modern humans.
The Lord crafted this ‘barbed bone’ so we poor souls could mate and not have to run at the same time...
Couple raccoons here can unscrew nuts off a hub cap with their teeth...they leave em on the porch in front of the door at night as a present.
What do they do with the hub caps?
Maybe they expect to trade your lug nuts for a couple of walnuts. “Ain’t that how it works?” asked Rocky Raccoon.
play frizbee of course- life isn’t all work for them ya know-
#11. Those were drunk neighbors, not raccoons. Racoons can twist metal tops off of jars. They did it to me.
#12. Re “What do they do with the hub caps?
They formed a backup group for, I thought, Gene Vincent but my Billboard’s Top Hits says they were call the “Blue Caps”.
Does anyone know of a group called “The Hub Caps”? In a movie? “Black Board Jungle”? “High School Confidential”?
The movie “Cars”?
Reminds me my sister was out with some gay friends, male and female. They got a flat tire and I had to come bust the lug nuts for them. Had one hold the lug wrench with both hands while I stomped the crosspiece.
It’s late, I just got off work after a strange shift tending bar, at home having a couple of drinks to unwind. So I’m scrolling through FR posts and see this one. So I think to myself I may as well click on it, maybe reading an article about about erect homos with barbed tools will put my evening in perspective.
This lawsuit is going to be enormous.
