Trinil Tiger by Moondawg

Trinil Tiger

The Trinil Tiger (Panthera tigris trinilensis) is a fossil tiger dating from about 1.2 million years ago. This tiger was found at the locality of Trinil, Java, Indonesia. These fossils are now stored in the Dubois Collection of the National Museum of Natural History in Leiden, the Netherlands. Although these fossils have been found on Java, the Trinil tiger is probably not a direct ancestor of the Javan tiger. The Trinil Tiger probably became extinct fifty thousand years ago.
