Animals Of Ice Age Europe
A scene featuring a bunch of animals known from the last glaciation (ice age) of Europe aprox, 25 kya.
The fauna is largeley based off the superb pleistocene assembelage at Tokod Nagyberek, Hungary, with the addition of Homo sapiens (modern Humans) and Corvus corax (common Raven)
I have reconstructed this scene taking place at the margins of two iconic ice-age habitats, the cold, dry and open Mommoth steppes (now largey vanished) and the more familar pinaceous taiga still common today.
i will published a labled version soon, but try spot and name as many animals as you can
a panoramic view of the landscape of Central Europe 25 000 years ago, set in fall
