Groundbreaking Discovery; Mummified Saber-Toothed Kitten Sheds New Light on Extinct Mammals
Scientists have uncovered a mummified saber-toothed kitten in Siberia's permafrost, offering unprecedented insights into the species' biology and geographical spread. This specimen, dating back 31,800 to 37,000 years, showcases unique physical adaptations and confirms *Homotherium latidens* inhabited regions beyond previous estimates. The analysis enhances understanding of Pleistocene megafauna, exploring the developmental stages and environmental adaptations of these iconic Ice Age predators.
