We are talking about animals that lived on Earth thousands of years ago.
In the Urals in the cave And discovered a graveyard full of giant lions, has already found more than a dozen skeletons. Scientists were able to reconstruct the skull of one of the cave monsters.
A fairly large bone, with which it would be possible to restore the image of the cave lion found in 2015. To recreate the skull of the animal took a year. After this set, its size in half to two times higher than those of modern African lions. The weight of the predators was up to 600 pounds. The age of the burial is defined by the Ural experts at 40-70 thousand years ago. To date believed that this type of prey has disappeared from the face of the earth for 30-50 thousand years earlier.
In the cave And has a very small hole. Therefore, for scientists is a mystery how it got so many predators with its large body size. One hypothesis is that the ancient people used it as a sanctuary and place of sacrifice. In the cave found many remnants live in it for many millennia, a sufficiently large human communities.
Unfortunately, experts say, the remains of Neanderthal man find has not yet happened, but they do not lose hope because the caves are still many strata, which excavations have not reached. To the question about the possibility of cloning a predator of lion bones found, scientists said, it is more likely that the remains found in the permafrost of Yakutia, because they are better preserved.
