Baz Edmeades, author of Megafauna - First Victims of the Human-Caused Extinction shares his discovery of the explanation for the 6 black dots that were painted to the back of a cave art rhino in Lascaux, South of France, some 15,000 to 13,000 years ago. Rhinos do now what they did then. No mystical explanations required - the answer lies in instinctual species behaviour.

  • Why were these large animals extinct?

  • A rhino doesn't wait for you to have the right equipment to manage wind sounds before it does its ritual poop, so we captured the event with what was available. The voice-over wasn't voice-over but a comment by one of the people in the car, merely saying "it's a bull". This is an amateur video and doesn't pretend to be any more than that. Too bad you weren't interested in the central message of the video though. Bad night?

  • He said "it's a bull".

  • hI ...TOO MUCH CRACKLING OF WIND IN THE CAMERA MIKE... EVERY NOW AND AGAIN A ONE WORD VOICE OVER THAT I COULD NOT HEAR. SCROLLING TOO FAST..IMPOSSIBLE TO READ SO FAST
