Amazing Find -Ultra Rare Homotherium Saber-Tooth Cat 12” Skull over 90% Original w 2 Perfect Sabers & All Teeth Original

Beautiful ULTRA-RARE Adult HOMOTHERIUM Saber-Cat Skull 12 “Long Highly Original  

Species Homotherium latidens 

Species Description :This cat evolved from Machairodus and appeared at Miocene –Pliocene border about 5 MYA and lived in North America  & Africa as well as EuroAsia and died out lastly in Asia and North America about 10,000 years ago so it was highly successful . It was a scimitar cat built  like a modern lion that had about 13 “ skull  but much longer teeth called sabers . It was larger than average saber-tooth cat that was very successful yet hardly ever found in fossil records. Complete Skeletons have only been found in Texas. It looks like Megantereon, however much shorter sabers and less sized lower saberguard and sabers reached to end of lower jaw as this one does. It reached 1.1 meters at shoulder. As said as compared to Megantereon, and gripping force. The skull was longer than Smilodon, and Machairodus its sabers were relatively short. It provided a great puncturing and gripping force. This jaw has turned down flanges to protect the scimitars. It has large canine teeth that were crenulated and designed for slashing rather than purely stabbing. Some of the physical appearances were unusual for a big cat as it had limbs that were hyena –like . Forelegs elongated while hind legs were rather squat with feet plantograde causing back to slope down towards a short tail similar to a lion. It had a large nasal cavity opening like a cheetah which allowed greater oxygen intake with brain visual cortex large and allowed it to hunt during the day instead of night like many cats.  IT lived 5 million years longer than Megantereon . It hunted in packs and not only killed mammoths but also rhinoceros juveniles.

 

Geographic Time frame: possible Early Pleistocene 11-2 MYA 

 Area   EuroAsia 

 

Item description: and rating : 1-10    10 X-Ultra Rare Beautiful Complete Adult Female Homotherium Scimitar Sabercat Skull 12 “ long  x6" wide . It is over 90% original bones and 100% Org Teeth with Perfect Sabers and rest of teeth as crisp as anyone has seen.  The sabers are magnificient-best I ever saw .The Upper is 99% Original including zygos which is rare .  I have wanted a whole one for years and the opportunity was afforded from a friend who is a top expert on these creatures, and this will be admired by me and ones who read this. I decided to sell this but it’s a hard decision. The only resto is back of lowers which all cats have.  IT has wider sabers than Megantereon and larger cat also. This is one of most complete skulls you would ever find with lowers and so rare I’ve only had a few. Only a number of them have been found in a Texas cave , and 2 in Florida and a handful in China and Europe .IT does have a dislocation due to pressure of earth on the side zygos so best to be displayed on either side . This is common for ,80% of cats.  AS someone who knows a lot on cats said the species is close to Xenosmulus(rarest sabercat in world) but different Wow  what a sabercat.  This is the most desired sabercat in the world. I have in past sold these over 43,000 even 10 years ago , and now worth much more . This is a deal.    ILl gladly keep it if not sold . Great Value I doubt if 10 of these have ever been found before

Geological period: Pleistocene  1-1.5MYA 

Item location:  Yakutia,  

Item rating and description:1-10   10 Spectacular Rare Wooly Mammoth Large Skin Belly Section 17” x 8”. This is so rare because it takes 1 year to dry and remove odors as it’s a long process and very very few around. I’ve seen one partial leg with skin that sold for $60,000. Gorgeous Wooly Mammoth real-time skin even though they last reported to live in Russia 10.000 years ago. On an island off Alaska and Russia - it survived a few thousands more until maybe 3700 years ago even though all others  died out well before this  .Due to global warming  the permafrost in Russia is melting and blasts of water on soil reveal animals on rare occasions just like they lived 10,000 years ago even though most are eaten by bacteria. These are the most desirable mammoth items in the world and they go thru such arduous tasks to make ready for someone. IT makes it so rare and time consuming they aren’t cheap. This is due to size of the Mammoths there and only pieces are ever found. What is amazing is it’s all original with small amount of hair . Nothing done to restore anything. The back of this is all original also. Collectors just dream about this, but here it is  IT comes with a great display also for both sides. TO imagine this animal dies 10,000 years ago plus shows you how DNA is collected and wooly mammoths will return within my lifetime I pray . It makes these really valuable. Completely unrestored, unbroken, and unrepaired pieces are rare. It does not even have a coating. Each one of these value wise added up should be more . I have one for my collection now so how about you . Only 1 lucky person will have this in USA this year

The skull is really amazing with very little restore mainly front upper with incisors including virtually no restore except incisors in front and small ¾ segment of front jaw . The lower jaw is 95% original with even real incisors which is unheard of. Only one back of lower jaw has some resto on entire horse. All  teeth are original to this animal. They don’t get better than this and a gray color is simply awesome . I’ve had some but this one of best ever . I do have another one same top premium . Its been awhile . My last one went for 5500 so a deal . ON quality you just can’t get this good. Bone quality is amazing.  Its such a pretty darker color for this area. It was found close to Indian land but on private property of a rancher . I’ve been to this location before and amazing quality is what you get.   May be a little resto on zygos as all have . All other teeth on both sides are not only complete but amazing quality with no repairs.  I guarantee if you find one better than the 2  I have this please tell me as I would not believe it . Anyway great price on magnificently displayed horse . All horses were small at this time but this is a big one.  Just one glance I had to have it as it is so outstanding.  IT displays well . I priced it to sell quickly as this will sell so fast my head will spin. This is an adult horse and second in line after Eohippus . I’ve only seen a few last 3 years .These  are hard to get original  like this so completely original as most have the entire  front completely restored due to saber cat attacks,  so you will not find many better .  I will not take less for this as I will gladly keep it. Why discount top premium items any more than I already did. These all  go for over 4000 now wholesale as demand has grown and supply limited . I bought the only 2 I saw at Tucson show this year 2022. Great deal at
