Shown: Homotherium
Geologic period: Modern
Homotherium (also known as the scimitar-toothed cat or scimitar cat) is an extinct genus of machairodontine saber-toothed cats, often termed scimitar-toothed cats, that inhabited North America, South America, Eurasia, and Africa during the Pliocene and Pleistocene epochs.
Karen's homotherium bust was created at life size, working with colleagues Bollinger Atellier, in Tucson, AZ. The finished sculpt was then painted in a color pattern suggested by its North American grasslands habitat.
See the coloration of the final bust.
