One paleontologist gave the perfect description of the cave bear; "the most bearish of bears".

I believe that the Cape buffalo is pretty near the limit as to the lion's prey choices. He is dwarfed by the bush elephant, which says a lot for the pachyderm.

tom I saw those pictures a few months ago; that's actually an overprotective elephant cow; a bull would have turned the buffalo into a spinning ragdoll.

The cave hyena and dire wolf comparison is like a scaled up version of spotted hyena and grey wolf comparison.

@thegreenagriotherium
I wouldn't say that; the weight difference is significantly higher than what we see in contemporary hyenas and wolves.

Largest cats of the Pleistocene (American lion was scaled to 125 cms in the comparison ; wrote 120 cm by mistake, Mosbach lion is slightly over-sized; 380 kg or so would be more likely)
