Wiesbaden (fossil-world) - there was about 600,000 years ago in Germany, an animal world as in Africa today. In the Rhine and other rivers are teeming hippos. On the mainland, elephants and grazing Chased rhinos, lions, leopards, cheetahs and hyenas and monkeys cavorting. More on this in a paperback entitled "Germany in the Ice Age" of the Wiesbaden-based science writer Ernst Probst.
The richly illustrated, small but nice Paperback describes the sequence of the characterized by strong climate fluctuations Ice Age that began about 2.6 million years ago and ended about 11,700 years ago. It is published in "GRIN for academic texts and as a printed paperback or electronic e-book in PDF format at the Internet address http://www.grin.com/e-book/151809/deutschland-im-eiszeitalter available.
About 600,000 years prevailed in Germany just a warm phase. At that time, the huge lion Mosbacher in Europe the "king of beasts" was. This Tiger is having a total length of about 3.60 meters as the largest lion in Europe. Only the American cave lion surpassed him by a few centimeters in length. Mosbacher The lion is named after the former village Mosbach between Wiesbaden and Biebrich, where fossil remains of this big cat was discovered.
were followed by warm periods during the ice age again, or even glacial cold periods with glacier advances. In cold times, it was cold familiar animals like mammoths, woolly rhinoceroses and musk oxen in Germany. In marched the glacial ice ages in the north to Dresden, and south to Fürstenfeldbruck. The change from warm periods and cold glacial times and keeps us aware that the climate has always been constantly changing.
Today people can probably imagine bad that in Germany at some point again where there is ice in the area utilized as a thick ice sheet on the mainland. Currently, it is feared rising temperatures more associated with negative consequences for plants, animals and humans.
