В прошлом на острове Флорес жили животные, похожие на слонов. Но было одно отличие: они были очень маленькими. На острове также жили комодские вараны и огромные крысы. Жили ли люди на Флоресе? Да, но они не были очень высокими. Их рост составлял всего около одного метра. Это рост трёхлетнего ребёнка! А их мозг был размером с апельсин.
