Marsupial lion tops African lion in fight to death
Date:1/17/2008
ifex was seriously over-engineered for dispatching small prey. These new findings support the conclusion that the creature regularly preyed on relatively large species and was able to effect quick kills and withstand large forces generated by large struggling prey.
Hypothetically, had a large marsupial lion ever come face to face with an African lion of similar size, it could have use its deadly cheek teeth and incredibly powerful arms to inflict mortal wounds on the mammal, Wroe says. Had it not become extinct, it might now hold top spot over toadys king of the jungle.
