这是我国第一具较完整的水牛化石骨架,经鉴定为“王氏水牛”。它于1999年7月18日在黑龙江省肇源县组装完成并对外展出。由于王氏水牛是我国北方已绝灭的一种地方性动物,在国外尚未见有报道,因而它也很可能是目前世界上唯一的一具较完整的王氏水牛化石骨架。笔者有幸主持了该骨架的修复装架工作,对骨骼进行了测量,并邀本省地质专家于延相先生同赴出土现场调查,现将有关王氏水牛的故事作一介绍。
This is the first complete buffalo fossil skeleton in China, identified as “Wang Buffalo”. It was assembled in Zhaoyuan County, Heilongjiang Province on July 18, 1999 and exhibited externally. As Wang Buffalo is a kind of endemic animal that has been extinct in the north of our country, it has not yet been reported in other countries. Therefore, it is also probably the only complete Wang Buffalo fossil skeleton in the world. I was fortunate to have presided over the repair work of the framework of the mount, the skeleton was measured, and invited the provincial geologist Yu Yan Xiang with the unearthed on-site investigation, now the story of Wang Buffalo for an introduction.
