122 RECENT CAVE-DIGGING IN DERBYSHIRE. 



The other animals represented were : Wild cat, fox, dog (or 

 wolf), badger, hare, rabbit, water vole, bank vole, sheep, goat, 

 and ox; also fowl (possibly pheasant), grouse, raven, jackdaw, 

 kestrel, common gull^ toad, and frog. 



Such little evidence as is given by this cave supports the view 

 that the Lynx lived in Britain in Prehistoric times, in association 

 with animals which still exist in the island at the present day. 



In conclusion, it may be well to call attention to the fact that 

 other caves in the county await the necessary funds for working 

 them ; and that they will probably disclose facts interesting not 

 only to the palaeontologist, but also to the antiquarian.
