Two extinct cave lion cubs preserved in Russian permafrost

Scarinae · 2019-07-18 21:17:01

The Panthera spelaea cubs are thought to be at least 10,000 years old, and are possibly much older. The find was officially announced today, but the specimens were discovered during the summer. It has been claimed that they are best preserved ever unearthed in the world. The Siberian Times has an article about it here.
