Hyper-lion, oh my!


This on steroids!  (Photo by AbZahri AbAzizis)
“Here kitty, kitty,” simply does not apply to Simbakubwa kutokaafrika.

This ancient lion was “possibly larger than a polar bear,” and could easily snack on any one of us.  Its giant jawbone (along with some razor-sharp teeth) was recently discovered in Kenya.

Simbakubwa stalked the earth during the late Paleogene Period, approximately “23 million years ago.”  If its DNA is still viable, LOOK OUT!
