Description
Mammal Hyena Ictitherium Skull. This excellent, complete 26 million year old fearsome mammal skull belonged to one of the earliest types of Hyenas that looked vastly different from the Hyenas that exist today. Hyena ictitherium lived in eastern Asia and looked something like a Civet with a long, four-foot body and short, powerful legs. Their massive skulls, with sharp, over one-inch-long canines, clearly show that they were carnivorous and likely hunted in packs. This museum quality skull was prepared out of the original matrix, with some of the matrix still inside of the skull. The skull measures 8.5 x 5 inches and is virtually complete; there are some cracks in the skull but all of the teeth are present, although some of the teeth have been placed back into position on the skull. This rare and impressive skull has been mounted on a 6 x 6 inch custom black Lucite stand, making for a very impressive display.
