These remains are older than all of us put together :)))

I am sure there are some old fossils on this forum also :-)

Footy,

I heard on the radio coming to work this am that some very seriously big (3 times the size of a Red Kanga) tree kanga's aand wallabies have been found on caves over there too. Probably the same place ??

Cheers

well I happen to know the exact person (father in law) that was the first one to go into these cave and discover the fossils called Thylacaleo. They were memebrs of CEGSA and go over to the nullabor searching for new cave every year for 1 month at a time.
There was a documentary made by the WA museum as the fossils were found in WA. He has a few cameo appearances in that and is mentioned in the credits.
They go out there with an ultra light and spot the cave openings from the air and mark their GPS coords to go back and explore later.

Looks like the boss

Thjere are a lot of caves out there, and not all are found from the air. Some are found the conventional way of,,,,,oh sh@t,,,,i just fell down a bloody big hole....
The entire cave system out there is huge,,,covering most of the entire nullabor area and then some.
The best we ever found was one that started above the escarpment and went about 30km toward the coast,,,,,lots of stuff in there,,,,the museum guys had a ball.
There are a few that are used by a local station as dumps for the dead sheep,,,,especially about 20 years ago when there was are a real long hot summer.
