Description
A L. emageritus stalking prey,somewhere in African Miocene Savannah.
Lokotunjailurus is an extinct genus of saber-toothed cats (Machairodontinae) which existed in Kenya and Chad during the Miocene epoch.The type species L. emageritus was documented by Lars Werdelin based on fossils found at the Lothagam site in Kenya. He described it as a large felid with an extremely long claw on one digit. He named the genus from the Turkana word for "cat" and the species from the word for "claw". Werdelin considered L. emageritus to be similar to Homotherium in dentition and to represent a basal member of Homotherini.(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lokotunj…)

Didn't they have huge dew claws on their forelimbs? Or are they hidden by the skin flap?
