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.

About #4: I'm not as surprised as you, but 2.000 saber-toothed cat face to 80 American lion, i.e. 25 times more. American lion was a social cat, the saber-toothed cat too if I am not mistaken... The difference is clearly significant.

On the other hand I'm surprised by the "4000+"dire wolves.

And the short faced bear's brain didn't save him from a brutal extinction. The intelligence is anything but an absolute remedy.

About #1: very interesting indeed @brotherbear !

I agree, but I doubt there is an intelligence difference between the two, and as @tigerluver said, it must have been the timing.

Survival is all about the more stronger mixture of factors relevant to the situation that needs to be survived.

Finally you could be right, these massive slaughters were perhaps absolutely not linked at all to the animals' intelligence...
