Ireland's 'Kerry Cow' bones are actually wild boar and bear, rewriting farming history

Bones found over 30 years ago on Ireland's Dingle Peninsula, long thought to belong to cattle, have been reidentified as wild boar and bear using modern scientific techniques. The discovery overturns earlier assumptions and reshapes the story of how and when farming arrived in Ireland. Scientists recently re-examined the remains with updated methods, yielding the surprising result.
