Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:31082609 |
This is a very rare Megantereon skull. Its condition is very good. Less than 5% of restorations and only glued. I have attached a photo of using ultraviolet radiation for inspection.The repaired part will show the fluorescent reaction of the entire block, but only the glue part of the photo shows a fluorescent reaction. The entire skull is almost not deformed and retains its original shape. The enamel on the teeth is still preserved. This is a museum-grade spec...imen.Megantereon was a genus of prehistoric machairodontine saber-toothed cat that lived in North America, Eurasia, and Africa. It may have been the ancestor of Smilodon.Megantereon was built like a large modern jaguar, but somewhat heavier. It had stocky forelimbs with the lower half of these forelimbs lion-sized. It had large neck muscles designed to deliver a powerful shearing bite. The elongated upper canines were protected by flanges at the mandible. Mauricio Anton's reconstruction in The Big Cats and their Fossil Relatives depicts the full specimen found at Seneze in France as 72 centimetres (28 in) at the shoulder. The largest specimens, with an estimated body weight of 90–150 kilograms (200–330 lb) (average 120 kilograms (260 lb)), are known from India. Medium-sized species of Megantereon are known from other parts of Eurasia and the Pliocene of North America. The smallest species from Africa and the lower Pleistocene of Europe have been estimated to only 60–70 kilograms (130–150 lb).However, these estimations were obtained from comparisons of the carnassial teeth. Younger estimations, which are based on the postcranial skeleton, lead to body weights of about 100 kilograms (220 lb) for the smaller specimens.In agreement with that, more recent sources estimated Megantereon from the European lower Pleistocene at 100–160 kilograms (220–350 lb).

Our Policy:(Please be sure to read before bidding) 4th Sep , 2020
1.Authenticity Guarantee:
Our products are guaranteed to be genuine. If you can submit a forged report through a third-party impartial institution, we will guarantee a refund. Before sending the fossils, we will use a microscope to record all the biological characteristics of the fossils as evidence (including the surface texture of the bones and the texture of the internal structure of the bones, etc.), So please do not use the reason for the counterfeit goods received in eBay's return mechanism to refund, because this is a very serious and false accusation, we will present evidence and take legal action.
The definition of fake fossil is that it has no biological characteristics but does not include restoration and glue.
Restoration is defined as the use of natural or artificial materials to reconstruct missing parts of fossils. Natural materials include bones, tooth, rocks, etc. Artificial materials include epoxy resin, gypsum B72, etc.
2.Shipping Safety Guarantee
Our packaging is very good, there has never been any damage caused by shipping, we will record the entire package process , when the packaging is completed, a seal will be affixed, if you receive the item, please confirm whether the seal is damaged, and record unpacking process, if there is damage, we can return the goods unconditionally and refund. (This condition does not include the cracks caused by the natural cracks originally present in the fossils, nor does it include the problem of natural shedding of eggshells.)
Due to vibrations during transportation, the fossils may crack from the original crack, so I applied a thick layer of B72 to avoid this, but if this happens, you only need to use a high concentration B72, just stick them back on.If you cannot accept this situation and may use this reason to return or refund, please do not bid it.
