The remains of the South American saber-toothed tiger, the largest recorded feline on the planet, which is about 10,000 years old, was found completely intact and articulated during construction work on a house in Argentina, a team of paleontologists confirmed to EFE on Wednesday.
Following the discovery of the skull on January 3rd in the town of Necochea in Buenos Aires, a group of seven paleontologists joined this Wednesday to distinguish a skull with iconic fangs – over 17 centimeters – and hypertrophied (enlarged) fangs, and they found two “small hands” on the sides. articulated, and spine.
“Perhaps we have before us one of the remnants tiger fang The most complete records found here, in the Pampas region and along the coast of the province of Buenos Aires, told EFE Matias Taglioretti, curator of the paleontological collection of the Municipal Museum of Natural Sciences of Lorenzo Scaglia.

saber-toothed tigers – whose scientific name is “smilodon population” – these are the largest cats on the planet that managed to develop large sizes, because the prey they fed on during the last ice age were giant animals, weighing more than a ton, grouped under the name megafauna. .
saber-toothed tigers hunted alone, on the hunt, the forelimbs were stronger than the hind ones, so they were not suitable for long runs in pursuit of prey, but they approached with sabertooth They attacked the neck to strangle and kill the victims.
With the disappearance of large prey, this tiger also became extinct.
Finding the deathbed at a depth of 1.4 meters, close to the surface, Taglioretti considered that this is a “rather modern person” who “may be about 10,000 years old”, so if this is confirmed, “he would have lived with the first settlers of the Pampean region “.
What makes a find “attractive” is that sabertooth It appears to have a complete skeleton – the front has been discovered so far – in addition to being a carnivore, which is rarer than herbivorous forms, Taglioretti explained.

OUR PODCASTS
Living Space: Dr Gichel Revilla Robinson, a dermatologist and member of the Dermatology Circle of Peru, explained that moles that appear on the palms of the hands or on the soles of the feet should be evaluated because they can be transformed and there is increased evidence for the development of malignant lesions. He pointed out that there are non-melanoma and melanoma skin cancers (more aggressive). He also pointed out how to identify a possible melanoma: asymmetry: half of the mole does not look like the other, irregular borders: the borders are uneven, blurred or poorly defined, color: pigmentation is uneven, diameter: when the mole measures more than six millimeters and evolution; determine if there have been changes in color, size, shape, or thickness.
