Item rating and description1-10 : 9.9   Largest Dog 16.5”   Ever BONE-CRUSHER Dinocrocuta Hyena ever - Mammal  Fossil From Eurasia -  Highly Original 10 Million year Old Giant Hyena  skull.  The only other one I had was 15 inches years ago . These aren’t available anymore as this was prepped for decades . . It was purchased in USA 25-30 years ago and recently prepped by the best in the world.  It was obtained in USA and it’s a top premium skull. In fact what is so fantastic is the teeth are all real whole teeth with all teeth original and lower to this animal’s upper. This was before work was done on these, and person who got it is a perfectionist and only gets the best . All was known to be there . Hardly any resto except a few spots. 98% original. I don’t even see any teeth repaired on this one. The darker color with spots  is so beautiful and rare . The teeth are absolutely huge 4 canines 2” long. Imagine facing this monster. It has metal stand that exhibits it so well that is so sturdy. It displays well on both sides. The entire skull is beautiful and natural. It’s simply an amazing piece. Has small amount of distortion on zygos which is common.  These are so rare in fact now this is last one I can get from a collector who owned it in collection for 25-30 years. You won’t see this again. IN fact the person since in matrix forgot he even had in in purchase decades ago. It was prepped recently but not much to do. There hasn’t been a recent one anywhere last 10 years at least . These are highly desirable . I've only seen a few of these in 30 years . THis animal had no waste . IT ate meat, organs   and bones so nothing left. I would say this was the most gruesome carnivore in history and more massive than the largest sabercat . This I believe the last one  that will ever be available due to how it was received as lost item found .

It is so colorful. The color is rare and  so appealing as a dark spotted huge skull. The color is brown spotted with beige and dark brown and some gray.  Lighting affects color of course  

     No other dog in history has ever been bigger . You can’t get these anymore at all I haven’t even seen one quite awhile in 15 years.  This is one-of-a kind . This will go so fast it will make your head spin. The pics will do the talking on this one  These hyenas are just like a dog with teeth that match but way bigger even though in Hyena category . All dog experts agree it’s a dog Displays so awesome .

This was the king and larger than the largest sabercat ever .

Amazing Dark Colored Beautiful 13 ” Cave Hyena Skull from Ultra Rare Location

RARE EXTINCT   Museum Quality Cave Hyena 13” OLD  HYENA 

Species:   Cave Hyena   crocuta crocuta spelaea

 

Species description: The cave hyena was a top predator in Asia and Europe.  These hyenas were  pack carnivores who hunted most every herbivore it wanted  , IT was one of larger ones  with only the dinocrocuta  and  adrocrocuta larger .It was about 8 ft long  IT looked similar to a modern hyena except much bigger  including the head was much wider and different shaped possessing a long body and short legs. This species once ranged from Iberian Peninsula to Northeastern China .This hyena was a highly specialized animal  that was so ruthless it could kill almost anything with its progressive and regressive features being more developed than the modern African species. IT preyed on large animals like wooly rhinoceros, red deer, giant deer and wild horses in Europe and Asia   .

It began over 2 million years ago as a species and was extinct about 30,000 years ago at end of Neanderthals . It would steal Neanderthals food also as documented, 30,0000 years ago it went extinct  due to competition with other predators and climate change, and loss of grasslands which they hunted. .

 

Geological strata: Late Miocene thru Pleistocene  Strata 

 

 Geological period: 2.5 million -30,000 Years ago 

 

Item location:  Russia 

 

Item rating and description: 1-10     9.9 This 13” Cave hyena  specimen is very rare due to location and its also very very old . It wasn’t tested but believed due to color of dark reddish brown to be possibly a million years old. Most specimens of cave hyeans are light colored all thru Europe but they in whole terms are so rare -this is amazing. These were vicious killers , and the beautiful color and high quality with what I can see just work done on palate make it special . Look how dark the teeth are also . It is at least 30,000 years old . This was found 20 years ago in a rare location close to deer bones so it was able to catch many types of prey including deer. This fossil  animal is top notch with only a few spots of resto over the skull, mainly on palate underneath .  It’s like an early huge giant dog , and this specimen displays so well. IT was a high quality prep job even though not a lot was done. While nothing is perfect this is so rare an animal and so complete no one can complain.  Its my first one complete, and first from this area. Germany is normal for these but so rare now it’s a treasure  and not expensive .
