Beautiful Amazing Rare Large 8.5” Chocolate Dinictis  First   Saber-Tooth

Species:  Chocolate   Dinictis  Felina  Saber- Cat Skull

Species description:   The long –legged dinictis with razor –sharp sabers was the smallest and the earliest  saber-tooth cat  that roamed North America beginning in the Eocene Period 45 MYA -23 MYA . They stood at least 2 ft tall with cheetah-like habits and diet , and were solitary predators  hunting an abundant food supply of grazing ungulates including camels  and oreodonts . Using their highly developed saber-teeth they would likely sever the blood supply in the neck of their prey in the initial attack. Most skulls  were about 7.5 inches long

Geological strata: Lower Zone  Brule Formation

Geological period:  40-23.5MYA

Item location:  NW  Nebraska  Arner  Ranch

Item rating and description: 12 + Unbelieveable  Rare Chocolate   Largest  Dinictis Saber-Tooth cat Skull  at 8.5” which was found  in 1994 by one of the top  hunters and authorities on saber-tooths.  A chocolate dinictis is almost unheard of as only a few mile radius in Nebraska Oligocene these  can be found . I can honestly say that probably not more than 10 cats have been found this color, and I’ve never seen one for sale,  and then one this large is amazing.   Dinictis saber cats were normally 6-7.5 “ skulls but this is one of biggest ever found. It has beautiful original long sabers over 2 ¾”inches along. Most is original but from an expert one of the sabers was half missing during its life so you can call this guy  half-tooth, and the rest  of that was restored with partial real saber fragments  . Also the top of skull is really super with about 90% original and some  restoration on zygo arches, little on saggital crest  and   a few upper skull sections. The lower jaws are mostly  real bone and all original teeth  except repair and little restore on a few incisors from another saber-cat about m40 miles from this ranch . The teeth are at least 90 % original though and beautiful . They fit well and has similar color with lowers slightly lighter . The uppers have only the mostly original but teeth were in pieces so they were heavily repaired with a few original incisors . The lower jaw is mostly original except for most of back of jaws which is normal for these. All and all a very good cat which is huge with sabers way over the usual 2 “ for this species. It can be shipped without fear of breakage .This is for top collectors and the largest  and a very good  skull. IT comes with a large pretty  display base  and is very secure on its stand . This is a chance to get a full  large skull that is so rare in nature I’m sure none of you have ever seen another  . One this large and a color few people can ever get so I consider this my best . I really could care less if you buy this skull because I will proudly keep it in my collection forever because Ill never see another this color. It is so super it literally can hold you attention for a long time . Nothing compares to this cat .

Super Nice Entire Metailurus Minor Saber-Tooth Cat Skull

Species: Metailurus minor saber-tooth cat

Species description: Smaller sabercat from genus machairodontine saber-tooth cats that belong to tribe metalurini. That lived in Asia and Europe 9-6 MYA. Known as false saber-cat because it had a cross between long flat saber-teeth and shorter cone-shaped teeth of modern felines. This is the forerunner to today's cheetah.

Geological strata: Hipparion Formation

Geological period: 9-6 MYA

Item location: Central Asia

Item rating and description: 12 +++++ Fabulous Rare Rare Metailurus Saber-cat from China Over 7" with all original Teeth including 2 beautiful sabers (original) 1.5" long with incisors and molars. The teeth are really exceptional. The skull is at least 95% original with small area on top and one zygo restored partially. The saber-cat is whole and a beautiful piece in all regards. The top feature beside perfect teeth on this is the quality of back of skull as well as front. All the back skull parts including condyles are present and I prepped it myself exposing all skull areas  in its entirety  except for between the zygos where it is too fragile to expose. I can do this for someone and mount but higher priced about 1000 more. However on skulls like this it displays best this way. Where can you get a whole saber cat for under $3000. I reduced this as far as possible in fact the other large one not near as good is almost same price so I will pass my good cost to you. If any websites have these they run $4,000 at least so go for it and make nothing to stop you.

Species description :  Hardly no record of this animal exists except it looks like a large  peccary  and belong to Artactyla, This is so rare hardly anything has been written about it but it was named by Cope of the famous Cope- Marsh duo . It is smaller than later Platygonius compresses but looks a lot like it . It was a browsing animal and very few bones have been found  . Read about this animal here and you will know more than 99 % of the population . You can look this up and get so little it is amazing .


Geological strata: White River Formation


Geological Epoch : Upper Oligocene


Geological Timeframe : 28-23 Million Years ago


Item location : Shannon County, S Dakota


Item description : RAREST AND OLDEST of ALL PECCARIES –ULTRA RARE PERCHOERUS  Beautiful 8.5” SKULL. Wow this is so rare little is known about it  . MY friend from whom I purchased has hunted 30 years and this is only the second one he ever found . I’ve only seen 1 other one in 20 years ever. What is so great this is close to 90% original so one of best ever found . The teeth are different colors on top compared to bottom due to lowers found away from uppers in sediment . However the teeth except for 2 very front small teeth are all original . A small amount of repair on a few also but you can’t even value this peccary as so few have this pig , and never in this condition . . The upper skull is extraordinarily great for any skull let alone this rare animal . Only a small area at very back –sagittal area is restored . The backs of the lower jaws have varying degree of resto but the rest in perfect and only to this animal . I was so happy to get this find , and only a true collector will appreciate this one as actual value is priceless. You will never find a better one for the money. Anyway the pictures will show you how original this is    . I will gladly keep this as I appreciate it so much .

BEAUTIFUL  Ultra RARE  100% Original  MEGANTEREON SABER-TOOTH CAT  Upper Skull w /Sabers

Species : Megantereon  inexpectatus


Species description : This cat evolved into SMILODON in N . America  known from La Brae tar pits in California . It was built like a modern jaguar but heavier, and had the largest sabers per skull and body size than any saber-tooth cat that ever lived including Smilodon. It was larger than average saber-tooth cat that was very successful yet found sparingly in fossil records . IT had stock forelimbs, with lower half lion -sized and large neck muscles designed to deliver a powerful bite. It severed the jugular and windpipe with a quick bite. It was a solitary hunter not like machairodus.  The elongated upper canines were protected by flanges at the mandible. They weighed up to 300lbs. The upper incisors and lower were flattened as they appeared to tear off after much tearing as this animal shows. It was one of the most geographically successful saber-cats of all time and only one full skeleton has been excavated in France.


Geographical Area:  Pliocene-mid Pleistocene 4.5 MYA in America -500,000 yrs ago in Asia


Item location:   Central ASIA


Item description & rating:  12 Fantastic RARE Female Megantereon  Saber-tooth  Cat 9.5” Upper  w/ 4.5” Sabers. What a beautiful Upper Skull., This cat evolved into Smilodon from California Tar pits.  It is actually 100% original bone with no zygos.  It is beautifully prepared by one of countries best preppers  and bought in USA . It has slight compression on one side by tectonic forces but does not detract from appearance or value. This piece will be displayed at many events for true appreciation. This is a once-in-a –lifetime piece and the distortion on one side causes slight slanted teeth but 100 % real bone is so awesome  . The sabers are huge.  If you want to talk about it please call 706-235-2694. Available for museums. Words can’t describe this skull as it is very fine. It was obtained many years ago and enjoy the pictures. It has remained unprepped for many years  in USA .This is a masterpiece that is a work of nature, and you can’t help to wonder why this saber-cat went extinct ½ million years ago in Asia  were it survived last. This is a museum quality piece, and few have these saber-cats. This is my fourth one this year  most obtained in USA many years ago. This is a display education piece .
