Wolf with a 40 cm head

[BrentD]

This is a pretty cool story, at least for me.

Maybe this will help. Cell phones suck.

Pretty sweet find. That would have been one serious animal.

Cool! wonder what took off it’s head? They Outta test tube some of that dna with some Timberwolf and see what we end up with..

 

[BrentD]

Sytes?

Super interesting and very cool to think about the world those eyes saw.

 

[Rzrbck918]

Wow, that would have been a 9’ animal. Amazing.

Isn’t that how they created the “super wolf” that was introduced to the US Rockies?

That is really cool. If I found something like that it'd be tempting to just boil out the skull!

 

[Sytes]

Would love to have cracked that dandy!

Incredible how well it retained the hide/fur, etc! That is incredible! I've heard Siberian wolves are still the largest in the world.
I'd love to hunt them in the vast wilderness of Russia...

Personally I’d go beetles but some guys prefer Maceration.

 

[ShootsManyBullets]

That's bad ass!

If you look at the tape measure the head is only about 30cm (6 to 36) to behind the ears, not much bigger than a current wolf.

Awesome, nonetheless. And the cave lions are quite the find too.

That kind of stuff is fascinating too me! Love it..... one of the coolest things I’ve seen in awhile,

There is a vertical cave in Wyoming which, as I recall, has three types of wolves. The Dire, then another similar species, and finally, the modern wolf. It is quite a place for cool mammal bones.
