It is 400,000 years ago in the middle Pleistocene epoch. On a tropical island positioned somewhere between Southeast Asia and Australasia, the giant monitor lizard Varanus priscus attacks the giant orangutan relative Gigantopithecus blacki. No matter how much of a fight it puts up, the great ape is likely doomed, as its reptilian adversary possesses a venomous bite like the related Komodo dragon.
By the way, the small goat-like animal fleeing the scene would be a mainland serow (Capricornis sumatraensis), whereas the bird showing shock to the upper left is a great hornbill (Buceros bicornis). Unlike the two main combatants here, which have both gone extinct, both the serow and the hornbill are still around in Southeast Asia.
I am an artist and author based in southern California who specializes in character and creature design and illustration. My favorite subjects include dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures, ancient history, anthropology, fantasy media, and strong action heroines of color!
