Vertebrate Remains
Many vertebrate remains are found in the fissures filled with red mud and at the bottom of pits. Some of the animals which inhabited the plateau include the Japanese rhinoceros, the Young tiger, the Stegodont elephant, the Nauman elephant and the Yabe giant deer.

Careful research of these vertebrate remains has led to an understanding of the changinghistory of vertebrate animals over the past 500,000 years.
