A. ramidus is one of several extinct hominid species that form part of the human evolutionary tree. It lived around 4.4 million years ago. The first fossil of A. ramidus, Ardi (1994), was found at the Aramis site in Ethiopia's Afar depression. The animals are elephants, antelope, warthog, and leopard. For a similar scene, see C015/5359
