I saw the funniest thing on Discovery channel recently.
It was a show that recreated the actions of prehistoric
animals. They showed this ridiculous scene of bipedal
Apiths, rocks and sticks in hand, in relatively treeless
habitat driving scavengers from a kill. What was so
comical about it was that prior to this scene there was
a scene which showed formidable Sabertooth cats being
driven off by an even bigger and more formidable predator.
One can only wonder why the authors of this program
couldn't/didn't put two and two together and arrive at
the conclusion that about the last place we'd expect to
find slow moving and relatively defenseless Apiths is
in the vicinity of scavengers/predators or a kill that
would attract them.
