American Lion: Fossil American Lion Skull (Felis atrox) cast replica (plus shipping)
Felis atrox was the largest lion to have ever existed, this individual weighing an estimated 900 pounds. Found only in the western hemisphere, this specimen came from the La Brea tar pits. The American lion was about one third larger than its African relative. They were taller, with longer legs proportionally and a slightly broader muzzle than the African lion. It is likely that they had the male's bushy mane and tufted tail in common. Metal stand (not shown) is available separately. (Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History specimen a portion of the sales goes to further their work.)

Cave Lion skull: Panthera spelaea
These large, conical-toothed cats of the North American Ice Age were a relative of the present day African Lion, Panthera leo. This specimen was found by a local Yupik Eskimo from an area near Nome, Alaska. Recent studies have suggested that some of these species actually showed more tiger-like features than lion-like.

Cheetah Skull (Metailurus minor) with base

Cheetah Skull (Metailurus minor) with base measures 6.5"
The original was discovered in Gansu Province, China
Late Miocene
Resin cast $190 (plus shipping)

Metailurus is a genus of false saber-toothed cats belonging to the tribe Metailurini that lived in Europe and Asia.
Metailurus is known as a "false sabertooth" cat because, instead of true saberteeth, it has a cross between long, flat and blade-like saberteeth and the shorter cone-shaped teeth of modern-day felines. The canines are longer than even the Clouded Leopard but significantly shorter than true saber teeth and more conical than bladed. Due to the fragmentary nature of Metailurus fossils, the number of species is subject to debate.

Kingdom: Animalia, Phylum: Chordata, Class: Mammalia, Order: Carnivora, Family: Felidae, Subfamily: Felinae, Tribe: Metailurini, Genus: Metailurus

Dinictis, saber-tooth cat

Dinictis, saber-tooth cat
Made of solid resin
Measures: 16 inches high, 17 inches wide
Resin Cast replica $249 (plus shipping)

Dinictis was a small, primitive cat from the Oligocene. This extinct, sabertooth cat had a sleek body, short legs, powerfully-muscular jaws, a small brain (in a 7 inch long skull), large canine teeth, and a long tail. Dinictis was plantigrade, walking in a flat-footed manner (unlike modern cats, which are probably much faster, digitigrade, walking on their toes). Dinictis, like modern cats, had three eyelids, the third one being a nictitating membrane (or haw). Dinictis was very similar to Hoplophoneus (the ancestor of smilodon) except the canine teeth were less exaggerated. Dinictis may have preyed upon Indricotherium.

In Eurasia it survived until much later. The last scimitar cat survived in North America until a few thousand years ago.

Liger skull cast

The skull is 16 5/8" long by 10 7/8" wide

Liger Skull Resin cast $199 (plus shipping)

The liger is a hybrid cross between a male lion and a female tiger. It is denoted scientifically as Panthera tigris × Panthera leo.

A liger resembles a lion with diffused stripes. They are the largest cats in the world, although the Siberian Tiger is the largest pure sub-species. Like tigers, but unlike lions, ligers enjoy swimming. A similar hybrid, the offspring of a male tiger and a female lion is called a tigon. Rare reports have been made of tigresses mating with lions in the wild. Under exceptional circumstances it has been known for a tiger to be forced into ranges inhabited by the Asiatic Lion, Panthera leo persica; however, this combination of species in the wild is considered highly unlikely. The present-day ranges of wild lions and tigers no longer overlap.

Lion: White lion of Timbavati skull cast replica

White lion of Timbavati skull cast replica
This skull comes from a 550lb male lion from South Africa taken in the early 1980's.
It is said to be from one of the famous "white lions of Timbivati" before they were all extinct in the wild.
The white lions of Timbavati Game Preserve in South Africa are extinct in the wild. The Cincinnati Zoo, Siegfried and Roy's compound in Las Vegas, 4 in S. Africa, 2 in Germany and 4 in other zoos are in existance.
The Timbavati Lions are the only white lions in existance. Roy Horn of Siegfried and Roy, presented the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden with a rare, 7 month old female white lion of Timbavati in 1998.
They named her "Prosperity", and will join her with "Sunshine and Future", 10 month old white male lions also from Siegfried and Roy. Their hopes for offspring are aimed at mid-1999. This pride of Timbavati lions has been named, "Pride of the Millennium".
White lions are extinct in the wild, and there are only 25 in existance in captivity.
Thanks to an alliance with the Johannesburg Zoological Gardens, Siegrfried and Roy were given 7 white lions to continue this unique line of species in their breeding program.
Legend has it that the white lions once every year would emerge from the bush, and show their pure white coats, which represents the good in all creatures.
The white lion is not an albino, it carrys the recessive white gene.

Machairodus was a genus of large, machairodontine saber-toothed cats that lived in Europe, Asia, Africa and North America. Species of Machairodus expressed great variation in size and proportions, with the largest being about the size of a lion. They all possessed serrated edges on their large canine teeth, though these wore down within a few years of the creature's life.

Machairodus skull cast $350 (plus shipping)

Machairodus is the likely ancestor of the genus Homotherium. Machairodus was itself descended from Proailurus, as were all true cats.

Machairodus giganteus.

Machairodus giganteus. Age: Late Miocene, China. This cat was about the size of a lion, but with a longer muzzle and narrower skull. Machairodus is an excellent example of a saber-toothed cat. Found throughout the world, this Eurasian species had coarse serrations on its incisors, sabers and carnassials. Interestingly, this particular specimen, when alive, had a severe nasal infection and a broken and worn left saber. As a result, its condition may have diminished its capability to hunt and kill its prey.

Adelphailurus kansensis saber-tooth cat

Rare Adelphailurus kansensis Saber-Tooth Cat
Species: Adelphailurus kansensis saber-tooth cat
Species description: This the rarest of all saber-cats found in USA. They were the size of a modern cougar or puma. This cat was a false – saber-tooth cat and had retained a upper second pre-molar, which is unusual for a cat. It was the second largest of late Miocene cats and was an Eurasian immigrant. It was a metailurus animal, which besides this species and one other was only found in Asia and a few in Europe. It is not one of top 6 saber-cats found and has only been found in partials with top of skull never been found according to all known documents. It was identified by Hilbert in 1934. Only a few skull pieces and few partial bones (humerus, radius, ulna, first phalanx) have been found. Though named after the state of Kansas, most bones and skull pieces were actually found in Arizona including this one. There has also been one found in Bone Valley Florida.
Geological formation: Milk Creek Formation
Miocene Early Hempghillan Tribe-Metailurini Genus: Metailurus

Item location: Congress Junction, Arizona
11" long x 7" agape Adelphailurus kansensis saber-tooth cat. This skull is about 40% original making it one of the most complete skulls found. This is unreal and you may never find another. Original parts include 3 jaws with 3 of 4 molar teeth groupings original and back of cat including condyles and strip of skull with one saber original and both lower end canine incisors. There has not been a complete top of the skull found. But since this is a member of metailurus we could reconstruct it based on those skulls. This is a real beauty and professionally prepped. Complete skulls of this species do not exist. This is an accurate representation of the species. This is a chance to own the rarest of rare saber cats and much larger than earlier saber-tooth cats.
