  1. Beringian Cave LionPantheraleovereshchagini By Jessica Hamblin

  2. Territory • Yakutia (Russia) • Alaska • Yukon Territory

  3. Looks • Larger than European Cave Lion but smaller than American Cave Lion • Tan coat • Tufted tail • A mane on males

  4. Diet • Hunted at night, diet usually the following: • Antelopes • Gazelles • Warthogs • Wildebeest • Buffalos • Zebras • Hares • Birds

  5. Mating • Females sometimes mate with more than one male, so there was a chance that one litter would have different fathers. • Mating could take many days, and they would mate twenty to forty times a day • It can take one hundred to one hundred twenty days for the babies to be born, and there were usually four cubs • 80% of cubs died before the age of two • New male leaders would usually kill the previous master’s cubs.

  6. Time Frame • About 300,00 years ago • (that’s the ice age)

  7. Enemies • I could not find any enemies, but I would assume the weather change or humans.

  8. Extinction • I could not find any information on exactly when it went extinct, but my guess is hunters or a shortage of habitat. And if cubs were killed, the mom could not have any more, so that could also have been a problem.
