AH show that the active processes was creepy remaining the fossil bones close ro the original situation of the animal and showing a distinctive intervention of rodents (rooth marks) inmediately after the death of those. The burial was produced by solifiuxion which includes bone remains in between clays and shales resulting from the decalcification ofthe hybrid limesrones that constitutes the cave.
