ah, the sound of the non-biologist looking at bison bones for the first time warms my archaeological soul.

I once heard a hypothesis that pre-human skeletons from a single site have such a range of variability in their appearance and general structure that when looking back at pre-human fossils there might not be different species but rather variations of the same species. The truth of that is hugely debatable but the idea could also apply to all fossils found, could it mean many spinosaur fossils for example are simply variations of the same species? What about variation between young and adult specimens? What about sexual dimorphism?
