Uuuuh! it's great to see them all together, makes a lot of difference in the understanding of their proportions. Wish the American lion was in there with them!

Damn! That's a smallish cave bear. It doesn't look to be that much bigger than a blackbear. Think it might be a youngin?

Tak, I'm glad that if u like the picture=]
The name of the museum in japanese is ε½η«η§ε¦εη©ι€¨(kokuritsu kagaku hakubutsukan), probably the largest museum of the kind in my country, and it's located at the ueno park, ueno, tokyo.
So I think it's not a bad idea(if u have time) to include it to ur list of places=]

Thanks a lot! I will keep that in mind, and try to include it in my Japan-visit.
I will stay in Tokyo for 14 days, so I am sure I will get the time for it
