(image source: https://fanon.fandom.com/wiki/Homotherium_latidens_(SciiFii)) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Natasha Krech discuss Homotherium, another one of those saber-toothed cats early humans had to deal with because we’ve never had enough problems. From the Mid Pliocene to the Late Pleistocene, this 5-foot machairodont felid was more like a saber-toothed cougar than a saber-toothed tiger, as it was a pursuit hunter that could run down prey rather than merely ambushing them. Then again, neither term is accurate, because these are completely different cats. You can’t call things things that they aren’t; that’s why if someone says the word “jellyfish,” the appropriate response is to hang them. Want to further support the show?
