35,000-Year-Old Saber-Toothed Kitten Discovered in Siberian Permafrost

Scientists have examined a 35,000-year-old saber-toothed kitten found in Siberian permafrost, revealing significant differences from modern lion cubs. The mummified remains, including fur and muscle, allowed researchers to study its unique physical traits, such as a massive neck and broad paws. Radiocarbon dating confirmed the kitten belonged to the extinct species Homotherium latidens, providing rare insights into these prehistoric predators.
