Ancient humans used a "surprising" method to hunt and kill giant, now-extinct cattle that could weigh up to about 2,000 pounds, research at a "unique" archaeological site in modern-day Israel has revealed.

The findings come from investigations conducted at the Nahal Mahanayeem Outlet (NMO)—a Paleolithic hunting locality on the east bank of the Upper Jordan River in the north of the country that has been dated to around 60,000 years ago.
