[18], Numerous fossil discoveries indicate the marsupial lion was distributed across much of the Australian continent. 2001; Pate et al., 2002). [Abstract]. [Abstract]. Either because of the reluctance to accept his report, or because they are simply unaware of it, most authors cite the first European encounter (1871?) Part IV. Bednarik, Robert G. (2013a). Only two families represented by four herbivorous species (koalas and three species of wombat) have survived into modern times and are considered the marsupial lion's closest living relatives.[21].

They instead had an extremely efficient and unique bite; the incisors would have been used to stab at and pierce the flesh of their prey while the more specialised carnassials crushed the windpipe, severed the spinal cord, and lacerated the major blood vessels such as the carotid artery and jugular vein. 1 An important clarification needs to be made here.

On the other hand, many Australian fossil sites appear to yield records of megafauna disappearance well before human presence in the area, giving weight to the interpretation that other factors, most likely climate-related, were the prominent drivers. 1: text.

Curious to know what game he had to do with, the boy ran after his dog, and found himself face to face with an animal of the size of a dingo dog, with a round head like that of a cat, with a long tail, and with a body striped with yellow and black, and which was crouching in the high grass at about a mile from the coast.

Like other diprotodonts, it possessed enlarged incisors on both the upper (maxillae) and lower (mandibles) jaws. Thylacoleo carnifex ("pouch lion") is an extinct genus of carnivorous marsupials that lived in Australia from the late Pliocene to the late Pleistocene (2 million to 46 thousand years ago). There are several cryptids which possibly find their true idenitites in Thylacoleo, or at least the thylacoleonid family in general (Wakaleo, etc.). Piper, K. J. Historically, the Thylacoleo carnifex diet has been debated but there is evidence that they could kill the heaviest megafauna the Diprotodon, which is estimated to weigh one tonne. Flower, William Henry. The Lost Australians: Back from Extinction. These teeth (the lower in particular) were shaped much more like the pointed canine teeth of animals such as dogs and cats than those of kangaroos. De Vis, Charles W. (1900). Roy. Pound for pound, Thylacoleo carnifex had the strongest bite of any mammal species living or extinct; a T. carnifex weighing 101 kg (223 lb) had a bite comparable to that of a 250-kg African lion, and research suggests that Thylacoleo could hunt and take prey much larger than itself.

Multiple recently discovered specimens of Thylacoleo carnifex have allowed researchers to reconstruct the extinct animal’s entire skeleton for the first time, revising what we know about how Australia’s largest-ever carnivorous mammal moved. These would have served to protect critical elements such as nerves and blood vessels if the animal used its tail to support itself when on its hind legs, much like present day kangaroos do. by the famous palaeontologist Sir Richard Owen in 1859. controversy has surrounded its dietary niche.

Linn. Nat. Mus. Journal of Archaeological Science 37: 2486-2503. Human hunters most likely hunted the animals these marsupial lions preyed upon into extinction, and this, in turn, led to its extinction. [6] While other continents were sharing many of their predators amongst themselves, as they were connected by land, Australia's isolation caused many of its normally docile herbivorous species to turn carnivorous.
