There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Amazing video. Did you want to see the "real" Panthera atrox? Then, you most see the jaglions. I bet that the skull of these cats is equal to that of Panthera atrox.
GrizzlyClaws is absolutely right, a jaglion most be more healthy than a liger or tigon, as jaguars and lions are more closely related. However, following this path, the most "healthy" of the hybrids most be the "lion x leopard" mix, as these two separated about 550,000 years ago, even after than the separation of the cave "lion" (Panthera spelaea) at about 700,000 years ago.
Panthera atrox is american lion right ?
Ive heard they are twice as big as African lions ?
But these jaglions are smaller than african lions.
Then how come they are equal ?
I saw a pic of atrox and african lion skull (from Bold) and the skull of atrox is double the size.
