Klaas Posted September 19, 2003 Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 Lol, I don't think you'll be able to find a photograph of that, photography wasn't that popular yet back then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wijitmaker Posted September 19, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 Yeah I was going to say the same thing Klaas Unless tomorrow, we will see in the headline:"Just dug up prehistoric photo from the ice-age of a large rodent" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Tutankhamun Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 I agree, they are neat. I would like giant rodents to train to pull a trailer all around town with me in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
