If this information is not all currently at Paranthropus, it certainly should be. --Wetman 4 July 2005 09:30 (UTC)


There were many important factors I added such as how Paranthropus boisei had the largest sexual dimorphism and their comparison to modern day Gorillas, you did not have to delete that. --Quena@sympatico.ca 04:24, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

"Males weighed 68 kg (150 lb) and stood 4 feet 3 inches (1.3 m) tall, while females weighed 45 kg (100 lb) and stood 3 feet 5 inches (1.05 m) tall. The average adult males were almost twice the weight and height as the females, giving them the greatest sexual dimorphism recorded of all identified hominins. "

Correct me if I'm wrong, but something's wrong with that math.--NotALizard 11:32, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
