 Engravings of animals that certainly never occurred in this area, like a sea lion, penguins, and possibly flamingos indicate that the hunter-gatherers might have had contact with the coast more than 100 km (62 mi) away. A modern archaeological survey led by Sven Ouzman questions these descriptions of Scherz ' initial investigation and describes the not easily recognisable fauna as "strange animals" — rough work of animals, possibly giraffe, that did occur at Twyfelfontein.
