Description

A Cave Lion coming cautiously out of it's den,somewhere in Pleistocene Northern Eurasia...
Panthera leo spelaea or P. spelaea, commonly known as the European or Eurasian cave lion, is an extinct subspecies of lion. It is known from fossils and many examples of prehistoric art.This cat may have been around 8%-10% bigger than modern lions and smaller than the earlier cave lion subspecies Panthera leo fossilis or the relatively larger American lion (Panthera leo atrox).(More at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panthera…)

I hope you like this famous big cat and I would be pleased to know your point of views about it:-)

Well, it seems like we'll have to cut out the "leo"!
Nice work, and, by the way, is this based off of this skeleton?
