Neanderthals.

On visiting Gibraltar it was a surprise to learn that the first Neanderthal (a woman) was discovered in the extensive network of caves in the limestone rock. It seems scientist in Neanderthal (Germany ?) were better organised and quicker off the mark and so, later, when they discovered remains of the same period etc. They got to claim and name.  or so the Gibraltarians told us ??


 A hot day at the Southern tip of Europe. (Tarifa)


Followed by a snooze in the sun.


A Meanderthal in it's natural habitat - a cave.

 Meanderthals do get along with other species.

 Careful ! They bite. You have been warned.  OUCH !
