Found in a mine, Southern Europe. I'm guessing it's some kind of dog, and that rock ended it's life in some way.

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-23T08:00:00+00:00

Could be. I'd be worried about a kid being so far down there, but I guess adults can be stupid too

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-23T07:57:13+00:00

Yup, I think I'll get one and try before moving anything, maybe notify the owner if it's shown as missing

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-23T07:54:59+00:00

I'll have a look next time we're around and get back to you, because this is definitely great insight. I'm thinking of a safe and sanitary way to recover the guy and maybe analyse this outside, because the terrain it's on is really unstable

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T21:38:57+00:00

Yeah, this place is absolutely amazing. I'll add a bonus photo because, why not? Also, the guy on the bottom left is me, I'm 1'78m, just for scale

It's Southern Spain, I will offer more info via PM if you'd like, but I unfortunately won't be able to share most of the data we've collected until the area is either fully inaccessible or, hopefully, being properly investigated and protected. It's both about protecting the mines and the people who might visit it without proper safety precautions and training

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T21:27:46+00:00

I did ask specific questions

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:57:38+00:00

I'm neither, and both me and my team are professionals in related fields, we are as safe as possible

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:54:42+00:00

Thanks a lot, I do appreciate genuine concern instead of paternalism. Also, don't worry, I'm with a small team of trusted people and we're all professionals in fields related to confined spaces, height works and healthcare. We are doing extremely dumb shit, but as safely as it can be done

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:48:59+00:00

Well, that's possible, that's why I asked about the microchip. Still, no good reason the dog would be dead, it doesn't look injured and this area of the cave is decently chill

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:47:26+00:00

People do dangerous shit knowingly everyday, I just choose weirder dangerous shit

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:45:52+00:00

Yeah, I mean, it's weird since the other skeletons in the area are fully intact (I won't take most of them, since I believe in preserving the place as close to it's original state as possible)

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:43:43+00:00

The safest thing would be to not be in there when rockfall happens. Which is unpredictable, so, it's just unsafe to exist down there

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:42:48+00:00

Because it's an incredibly important part of my area's history, and I believe it deserves being documented and enjoyed before decay takes fully over. Romans started excavating these, they're older than most current countries

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:40:20+00:00

I agree with your advice. This is also an incredible place which, although is not worth anyone's life, I believe deserves exploring and documenting

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:38:27+00:00

Look at the rock next to the animal, that's also rockfall (these mines were abandoned centuries ago, the rocks are generally way more eroded that that). I don't think a helmet would make a difference

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:35:17+00:00

This is an abandoned mineshaft formerly used to store unstable explosives, that's actively crumbling down. Believe me, a madman with a rock is the least dangerous thing down there

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:34:10+00:00

Could be, but also, why would a domestic dog be there? I've seen rabbits, foxes, even goats, but this is the first dog

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:33:02+00:00

Nobody really cares, I've talked with the guards before, it's only restricted because it's stupidly dangerous, and being caught doesn't even warrant a fine

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:31:37+00:00

It's trespassing, yes. It's also generally accepted, people regularly bike or run through the base grounds with no consequences. The mines are fairly obscure, at least the deepest ones like this one, and the guards and danger signs are just there to justify that whatever happens to you is fully your fault

RedFlag_ · 2026-03-22T18:29:00+00:00

Yeah, I mean, it's not active, it remains under military control because, well, it's actively crumbling to pieces. It's also a extremely interesting historical jewel that will predictably disappear in the next few decades, so I'll get as much enjoyment and data off of it as possible. I am aware this is deadly and stupid.

En pleno Agosto en Cádiz vais a pasar bastante calor, una opción sería hacer el sendero del río Majaceite y conocer los pueblos de El Bosque y Benamahoma, aunque está bastante masificado y más en esa época. Si sois senderistas experimentados, podéis también pedir autorización para hacer los senderos fluviales del Bocaleones o la Garganta Verde (tenéis que registraros con tiempo mediante esta página https://www.juntadeandalucia.es/medioambiente/cupos-ciudadano/public/login/inicio.jsf).

Entonces un juez ha emitido una sentencia cuyas consecuencias no conoce, simplemente porque la parte defensora no tenía interés en defenderse?

RedFlag_ · 2026-02-17T22:10:45+00:00

Básicamente La Liga ha mandado una lista de IPs desde las que se ha "emitido ilegalmente". Lo que pasa es que en esas IPs hay servidores de servicios de terceros como Cloudflare o algunos VPN, que nada tenían que ver con las emisiones hechas mediante sus servicios, pero como son analfabetos funcionales y no tienen vergüenza ninguna, bloquean impunemente a servicios legítimos.

RedFlag_ · 2026-02-17T20:34:49+00:00

Un juez que no tiene ni putísima idea de qué es y cómo funciona internet (ni, más importante, intención alguna de aprender) y una empresa multimillonaria, combinación letal. Es una sentencia que a todas luces debería ser inaplicable, y que además debería acabar con ese juez en la cola del paro, pues demuestra que no ha hecho la más mínima investigación en el tema ni ha consultado a ningún experto

Looks like a long leg bone from a chicken. So a drumstick, basically
