"Saber-Toothed Cat Fossil Discovered on Texas Coast"

Researchers at the University of Texas Austin have discovered a fossilized saber-toothed cat skull on the Texas coast, revealing that the species once roamed the now-submerged land connecting Texas to Florida. The fossil, which was submerged in the Gulf of Mexico for thousands of years, was identified through X-ray analysis, showing a hidden canine tooth and indicating the animal was young when it died. This finding provides new insights into the ancient landscape and its wildlife.
