Panthera crassidens

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Panthera crassidens is a possible species of leopard, that is now extinct. It lived during the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene in Africa. It has been argued that the few fossil remains do not represent a genuine species, and instead belong to some other form of big cat [1].
