Big cats An almost complete skeleton of a huge
sabre-toothed cat named "Xenosmilus" has been dug up in a Florida
quarry. This animal roamed the south-east corner of North America
in the Early Pleistocene. Two other kinds of sabre-tooth cat are
known in North America, one short-legged with long teeth and one
long-legged with short teeth. This newest fossil combines traits
from both of these other cats. Scientists say that the cat would
have had a bear-like appearance. 29 JANUARY 2000, P. 21
