Other fish visible in this drawing are a gar (Obaichthys africanus) and a polypterid. Of the polypterid all we have are two jaw fragments, and one of those isn't even from the Kem Kem. Phylogenetic bracketing is a paleontologist's best friend.

Some fossil skulls have an important place in understanding the variation of extinct species. Stw 505 is a large Australopithecus africanus skull, helping to show that big individuals had brains that overlapped in size with the larger-brained Homo.

Polyergus mexicanus: If you're lucky you'll see an orange column of these charging across the ground, raiding other species' colonies. They keep prey alive as "enslaved" workers. Classic social parasite, here in our backyard. Look it up.
