Elephant Instead of Wild Boar? What Could Have Been in Europe

Even under today’s climatic conditions, the long-extinct straight-tusked elephant could still live in Europe. This is the conclusion of a recent study. For this finding, the Sport Ecology research group at the University of Bayreuth combined fossil finds with reconstructions of past climates. The researchers present their findings in the journal Frontiers of Biogeography.
