Could a pack of North American dire wolves take on a sabretooth cat?
)
November 7th, 2011
The dire wolf: Five feet long and two hundred pounds of savage predator. The collectivist of the animal kingdom, it works together with its snarling pack of comrades to distract, exhaust, and ultimately overwhelm even the largest of prey.
Smilodon populator, the “sabretoothed cat”: Weighing in at a thousand pounds and standing five feet at the shoulder, this feline nightmare with its terrible foot-long fangs is the only species which ever dared challenge Man for top spot on the food chain. Hunting silent and solitary, it is the rugged individualist of the animal kingdom.
When the howling pack of slavering dire wolves encounters the killer kitty, which one do you think is likely to come out the bloodied and pelt-scarred victor — and which becomes tomorrow’s protein source?
