A 14,000 year-old artwork - ‘Bison Licking a Bug Bite’ :
A 14,000 year-old reindeer antler carving of a bison and a living bison. Madeleine Cave, France.
Known as “Bison Licking a Bug Bite,” this small but detailed carving is a lifelike depiction of a steppe bison (Bison priscus), an extinct species of bison that roamed vast areas of Europe during the last ice age.
