当初塔翁小童发现之时,雷蒙德·达特提出了Osteo-Dento-Keratic文化假说,认为塔翁小童是被其他人科生物杀死的。其后,later work by C.K. "Bob" Brain demonstrated that the child was probably killed by some sort of mammalian carnivore such as a leopard. Recently, however, studies of the associated baboons by Ron Clarke and Lee Berger, and identification of specific marks on the Taung Child skull have demonstrated that the Taung Child may have been killed and eaten by a large bird of prey.
