The inspiring 9th edition of the unparalleled «Evolution of Life» series delights with this outstanding addition of a truly remarkable specimen from a bygone era. The Nimravidae, a prehistoric feline family including the depicted genus Hoplophoneus, flourished during the Palaeogene. Also known as false sabre-toothed cats, these mammals were fearsome predators.
