Everything about Paramachairodus totally explained
Paramachairodus is one of the oldest known true
saber-toothed cats (
Machairodontinae). A large number of
fossils were discovered in Cerro Batallones, a Late Miocene fossil site near
Madrid,
Spain. Two leopard-sized species are known,
Paramachairodus ogygia from
Vallesian to early
Turolian age and
Paramachairodus orientalis from the Turolian. A third species
Paramachairodus maximiliani, is considered a synonym of
Paramachairodus orientalis by most authors .
The animal was about 58 cm high at the shoulder, similar to a
leopard, but with a more supple body. The shape of its limbs suggests that it may have been an agile climber, and could have hunted relatively large prey.
