Up for sale is a lower mandible/jaw of prehistoric cave lion Panthera spelaea (carnivorous mammal, ancient big cat) from late Pleistocene of Songhua river, Heilongjiang province, NE China! This listing features a rare and remarkable specimen from the Pleistocene epoch: a cave lion fossil originating from Heilongjiang in Northeast China. The Pleistocene, often called the “Ice Age,” was home to an impressive array of megafauna—large, powerful animals such as woolly mammoths, giant ground sloths, steppe bison, and the formidable cave lion. These species thrived in cold, open environments across Eurasia, adapting to harsh climatic shifts and playing key roles in ancient ecosystems. The Pleistocene cave lion (Panthera spelaea) was among the most iconic predators of the era—larger than modern lions and known for its muscular build, strength, and dominance at the top of the food chain. Fossils from Heilongjiang are especially significant, as this region formed part of the lion’s northeastern range and provides valuable insight into how Ice Age predators adapted to colder climates. This specimen offers collectors, researchers, and enthusiasts a tangible link to the Ice Age world and a rare opportunity to own a piece of prehistoric natural history. —————————— The size measurements of this item is around 18.5 x 7.8 x 2.8 cm/7.28 x 3.07 x 1.1 inches, with no repairs and restorations.
