pseudaelurus is a prehistoric cat that lived in europe , asia and north america in the miocene between approximately 20 to 8 million years ago .

it is an ancestor of today 's felines and pantherines as well as the extinct machairodont saber-tooths , and is a successor to proailurus .

it originated from eurasia and was the first felid to reach north america , when it entered the continent at about 18.5 ma ending a ' cat-gap ' of 7 million years .

the slender proportions of the animal , together with its short , viverrid-like legs , suggest that it may have been an agile climber of trees .

data table results : there are arguments for and against sexual dimorphism being the explanation for some character differences between species of fossil felids . arguments for include : ( 1 ) sexual dimorphism is seen in modern felid species , at the very least in body size and skull length in small felids . ( 2 ) the fossil felids pseudaelurus skinneri and pseudaelurus stouti display differences in c - - p3 length that could also be interpreted as sexual dimorphism . ( 3 ) the fossil felids pseudaelurus intrepidus and pseudaelurus marshi are size and temporally equivalent . specimens of the two species are sometimes found in the same paleontological localities ( quarries ) . arguments against include : ( 1 ) a similar range in c - - p3 length and dentary height and width is not seen in the fossil felid pseudaelurus validus . pseudaelurus validus and some modern species do not exhibit sexual dimorphism in the lower jaw . ( 2 )

modern assemblages of felids sometimes contain at least two species that are indistinguishable in jaw length . ( 3 ) the p error for the hypothetical pseudaelurus intrepidus - - pseudaelurus marshi ( male - female ) species that i created in this tab le ( 0 . 0001 ) is far outside the range of p error seen in the four modern species studied ( 0 . 28 - - 0 . 008 ) . the results appear inconclusive , due primarily to the variability of the sexual dimorphism displayed by different species of living felids . however , if pseudaelurus intrepidus and pseudaelurus marshi were indeed sexually dimorphic members of the same species , the males and females differed far more than any of the four living felids that i studied .

all modern day cats in the americas are descended from the pseudaelurus , which crossed over to north america using the bering land bridge that once connected alaska with asia 18 . 5 million years ago .

rothwell , t . 2001 . a partial skeleton of pseudaelurus ( carnivora : felidae ) from the nambé member of the tesuque formation , española basin , new mexico . american museum novitates 3342 : 1 - 31 .

the oldest known true felid ( proailurus ) lived in the oligocene and miocene eras . during the miocene , it gave way to pseudaelurus . pseudaelurus is believed to be the latest common ancestor of the two extant subfamilies , pantherinae and felinae , and the extinct subfamily , machairodontinae . this group , better known as the sabertooth cats , became extinct in the late pleistocene era . it includes the genera smilodon , machairodus , dinofelis , and homotherium .

pseudaelurus ( " false cat " ) was named by french zoologist paul gervais in 1850 , who based the designation on a single mandible that had been described over a decade earlier by another frenchman , edouard lartet , who thought it resembled that of the modern hyena .

the first cat to immigrate into the americas ( which it did via the land bridge across the bering sea during the early miocene ) , pseudaelurus gave rise to the saber - toothed cats known as smilodon . it is also believed to be the ancestor of all modern cats , including the domestic house cat .

" i review the fossil felid literature , researching the early history of the genus pseudaelurus in europe . i examine type pseudaelurus specimens from europe , asia , and north america and emend the generic diagnosis . a large body of new material from the frick collection of the american museum is described and specimens are assigned to one of six species . one species is new and one is transferred from lynx . new material includes two partial skeletons assigned to two separate species , several skulls , one skull with associated lower jaws and intact basicranium , numerous maxillary and lower jaw specimens , and isolated postcranial items . cranial , basicranial , and postcranial material of the frick specimens is compared to that of european taxa as well as to modern felids . a cladistic analysis of 10 taxa and 23 characters produces hypotheses of felid relationships " - - p . 2 .

approximately twelve species of pseudaelurus once roamed the plains of eurasia , africa , and north america between 20 and 8 million years ago . all of them looked much like modern cats except for having shorter " hand " and " foot " bones , hind limbs longer than forelimbs , and a long , flexible back . the smallest species was about the size of a modern house cat , the largest about the size of a modern cougar ( about 5 feet long and 50 pounds ) .

this is an illustration of the type specimen of pseudaelurus marshi , a fossil lower jaw of a cat who lived in north america in the middle miocene , approximately 13 million years ago . the illustration is featured in the original description of this fossil , written by the paleontologist malcolm rutherford thorpe in 1922 . i scanned this illustration and then added the reference to the distance from c - p3 . early on in my research on the early cats of north america , i realized that the space between the lower canine ( c ) and the third premolar ( p3 ) was a character that could possibly differentiate species in both extinct and modern felid taxa .

this wonderful fossil ( unsm 25490 ) is a partial skull , the type specimen of pseudaelurus stouti , a small cat who lived in north america approximately 14 million years ago . it is housed in the university of nebraska state museum . we are looking at the upper dentition . this cat was similar in size as our domestic cats of today . however , notice that this cat has four upper premolars . the cat in your house or barn would have p2 , but no longer has p1 . the modern , domestic cat has evolved without a first upper premolar ( p1 ) . it has lost this anatomical feature or character . photo by tom rothwell

stratigraphic chart : this is a rough estimate of stratigraphic ranges for various fossil felids . as new specimens are discovered , or as fossil localities are dated more precisely , these ranges will change . the first north american felids arrived during a major dispersal from eurasia to north america that began approximately 20 m . y . ago . the early fossil felid record of asia is poor . only a small number of specimens have been recovered from early and middle miocene localities . therefore , the stratigraphic range of pseudaelurus in asia is less certain than europe and north america . my present felid research project is a study of the early north american saber - tooth cats , often referred to as the machairodont felids . nimravides and machairodus are two of the earliest north american saber - tooth cats . na felis refers to the stratigraphic range of fossils of the modern felids .

from the tall grass savanna of kenya to the forested slopes of the rockies , from the steaming jungles of indonesia and the crags of the himalayas to your very own living room , cats prowl our planet . some are large and imposing , celebrated for their predatory power . others are small and elusive , their spots blending into the shadows . not to mention our familiar moggie companions that purr and yowl for a tender back scratch . at whatever size , and whatever form , we seem to have limitless adoration and fascination for the felines that inhabit our planet . our affection for them runs so deep that we’re even transfixed by those that slipped into extinction long ago . there is no more potent symbol of the ice age than smilodon fatalis , the great saber - toothed cat preserved by the hundreds in the thick muck of the la brea asphalt seeps . living or dead , we love cats .

but where did cats come from ? they did not spontaneously burst from the grass to ambush their prey . the world’s cats , both large and small , wild and domestic , have as deep and circuitous an evolutionary history as any other species . and while they’re all consummate predators , the cat family has taken a variety of forms . their remarkable flexibility has allowed them to flourish , whether in the shape of lanky speed demons like cheetahs or the extinct sabercats who stalked baby mastodons , or domestic tabbies that are the scourge of backyard wildlife . cats have always been malleable beasts , changing with the shifts in climate and habitat that the earth has undergone since their origin over 25 million years ago . and while there are various points at which we could start the great cat tale , let’s begin with one of the worst days in the planet’s history .

exactly what the founder of the cat family looked like is unknown . the fossil record , as charles darwin once wrote , is like a stone book for which we only have a few words or sentences in an incomplete array of chapters . this makes it all the more difficult to pin down precise ancestors , especially the further back in time you go . therefore paleontologists look for animals that have what they call transitional features – traits that bridge gaps between groups and act as proxies for those ancestors , tracing the chaotic route of evolution from the present way back into the past . for cats , that search has led fossil experts to a little mammal called proailurus . the naturalist henri filhol named this extinct beast back in 1879 from fossils found in france , and even then he could tell that the mammal had something to do with the origin of felines : proailurus means “first cat . ”

a 20th century reconstruction of smilodon , the great sabertoothed cat . | credit : the prelinger archive

not all sabercats were exactly alike . one of the earliest , the 15 - million - year - old paramachairodus from europe , was about the size of a leopard and had relatively short canines compared to its later relatives . much closer to us in time , from 2 . 5 million years ago to about 10 , 000 years ago , the famous smilodon line had species that exceeded a siberian tiger in size and grappled prey to the ground with burly forelimbs . the much more slender homotherium had shorter canines and a rangier build better suited for running after victims . then there was xenosmilus – the “alien knife” – who mixed short , broad sabers with a muscular build , mixing and matching traits seen in the smilodon and homotherium lines . there were many ways to be a sabercat .

those fearsome teeth have long had a hold on our imagination . so much so that there’s been no shortage of ideas about how sabercats used their fangs . over the years these cats have been cast as stabbers , armor - piercers , and even blood - suckers , but the modern consensus is that smilodon and its relatives used their extended canines to slice through the soft parts of their ancient prey . a sabertoothed bite to the neck or belly of a victim would have caused catastrophic blood loss , if not immediate death .

the last of the sabercats died out about 8 , 000 years ago . why they disappeared is a mystery . while art works , museum displays , and movies have often depicted the cats trying to take down giant sloths and mammoths , recent studies have suggested sabercats preferred mid - sized prey such as camels and baby mastodons . still , it seems that these cats specialized in hunting the megafauna that once flourished during the last ice age , and when many of these creatures died , so did the cats . for the first time in over 20 million years there were no more sabercats , although , given how many times they’ve evolved , it’s likely that something resembling smilodon could eventually evolve again . for now , though , the world belongs to the short - fanged cats .

the felids we know — and love all the cats we know today – from the biggest siberian tiger of the frigid forests to the tiny margay of the american tropics – are felids . they split from the sabercats over 20 million years ago , and today represent about 40 distinct species spread across the americas , europe , africa , and asia . of all the wild cats , though , it’s the big cats that get the lion’s share of our attention . despite sharing a large body size , though , not all “big cats” are close relatives . there are two subdivisions of living cats . one group , the pantherinae , includes tigers , lions , jaguars , leopards , and snow leopards , as well as the smaller clouded leopards ( the most ancient lineage of the pantherine group ) . a second group – the felinae – includes cheetahs and cougars in addition to the comparatively diminutive fishing cats , sand cats , jaguarundis , and their relatives . the cat family tree is a tangle of surprising connections .

in terms of the world’s beloved big cats , though , paleontologists have recently started to zero in on where they came from . in 2013 , paleontologists working in tibet announced the discovery of panthera blytheae . up until the cat’s discovery , the oldest known pantherine cats were thought to be from the 3 . 6 million year old bedrock of tanzania . panthera blytheae moved back the group’s origins to older than 4 . 4 million years , and in a place that wasn’t expected . big cats were thought to have originated in africa , but the recent discovery seems to point to asia , and , more specifically , the tibetan plateau . other mammals – such as woolly rhinos and himalayan blue sheep – seem to have gotten their start in the same place , leading paleontologists to suggest that mammals whoevolved in this chilly place developed adaptations for cooler conditions , which allowed them to spread outward and thrive as the planet started to go through the ebb and flow of ice ages . this doesn’t mean that panthera blytheae was the direct ancestor of today’s lions and tigers , but the cat points to a deeper and more complex story for our favorite carnivores than anyone previously knew .

of course , there’s more to cat evolution than the backstories of fierce sabercats or lions teaming up to take down water buffalo . many of us live with cats . the aspca estimates that there are between 74 and 96 million domestic cats in american households alone . that number even outstrips the count for dogs ‑ our supposed ‘best friends’ . you may even be feeling the rumble of your feline companion’s purr on your lap as you read this . how did this special connection between our species and a fuzzy carnivore with sharp teeth and retractable claws come to be ?

our inadvertent partnership with cats changed them just as they changed our daily lives . biologists have even been able to see this in cat genes . on the surface , the feline that struts around your home doesn’t seem much different from their wild counterparts . ( this is part of what makes feral cats such an ecological nightmare – they’re adept hunters of native species that has led countries like australia from banning outdoor cats . ) but get down into the dna and biologists can see that our favorite pets show at least 13 genetic markers that distinguish domestic breeds from wild ones . some of these differences are associated with behavior , such as changes in when cats feel fear or how they’re able to learn when provided food as a reward , showing how their brains changed as they came in to settle down with us .

looking back at our own history , it may seem a little strange that we keep cats so close to us . the very first humans evolved in africa over six million years ago , and by then there was a wide array of sabertoothed and non - sabertoothed cats on the scene . some human fossils – such as the skull of one of our australopithecine cousins dubbed sk - 54 with two puncture marks matching the tooth width of a leopard – indicate that cats even ate some of our relatives . coming down from the trees meant that we were entering a world ruled by cats ready to pounce from the grass . we evolved alongside cats , undoubtedly fearful as well as fascinated . for while each cat species differs , they all share elements of the same grace and charm we’ve admired for as long as human memory can trace back . through our own history we’ve been cat food , stolen their kills , admired them from afar , treated them as gods , and , unfortunately , brought far too many to the brink of extinction . if we truly love cats as much as our culture professes we do , then the best we can do to honor them is let cats continue their 30 million year evolutionary journey into the future .

you may think your dog has an irrational hatred of cats , but their instinct to chase felines out of their territory might be more reasonable than you think .

fossils have revealed the two species have a rocky past after the introduction of cats to the americas had a devastating effect on the continent ' s species of wild dogs .

in fact , it is thought that competition from cats caused up to 40 species of dog to become extinct in the region millions of years ago .

the introduction of cats from asia into the americas 18 . 5 million years ago is thought to have drastically decreased the biodiversity of dogs , according to researchers .

competition for food from ancient felines is said to have played an even more important role than climate change in eliminating dog species on the continent .

don ' t know your chiffchaff from your willow warbler ? new app . . .

' old age suit ' reveals what it ' s like to be a pensioner : . . .

' we usually expect climate changes to play an overwhelming role in the evolution of biodiversity , ' said leading author daniele silvestro at the department of biological and environmental sciences , university of gothenburg .

' instead , competition among different carnivore species proved to be even more important for canids . '

domestic cats and dogs , along with other carnivorous animals like lions and bears , all share lineage with a tree - dwelling mammal whose origins remain a mystery .

yet paleontologists believe there are even earlier ancestors explaining the evolutionary line of these much loved animals .

now scientists in belgium have unearthed fossils of one of the earliest of these mammals which roamed through humid forests 55 million years ago .

the remains of the new species , which also had ankle bones , has been named dormaalocyon latouri after the belgian village of dormaal where it was found .

dormaalocyon latouri was a 1kg ( 2lb ) tree - dweller that is thought to have fed on even smaller mammals and insects .

an international team , including scientists from the universities of gothenburg , sweden , são paulo , brazil and lausanne , switzerland , published the findings in the journal proceedings of the national academy of science .

the dog family , which includes wolves and coyotes , originated in north america about 40 million years ago .

they reached maximum diversity in the continent 22 million years ago when , at their peak , more than 30 species roamed the land mass at the same time .

however , since they were introduced dozens of species have emerged and become extinct over a period of millions of years .

only nine species of canid inhabit the continent today , including the domestic dog .

ancient dogs progressively increased in size , some exceeding 66 pounds ( 33 kg ) , with some examples including the extinct dire wolf and the epicyon reaching about double this size .

the introduction of cats from asia into the americas is thought to have drastically decreased the biodiversity of dogs , according to researchers . pictured , a north american bobcat

the findings suggests that ancient north american cats were more efficient hunters than most extinct species from the dog family .

' we do not know exactly which species of felids had the strongest competitive effects on ancient dogs , ' silvestro told mailonline .

' however an entire subfamily of dogs , known as bone - crushing dogs , started to decline sharply around 15 million years ago , when felids started to be numerous in north america , and was completely extinct around 2 million years ago .

' bone - crushing dogs , which in total included more than 60 species , included some of the largest canids that ever existed and our results show that it was the most affected by competition with felids . '

the survival of any carnivorous species is linked to its ability to effectively hunt prey , and the availability of food .

limited amounts of resources – in this case prey - imposes strong competition among carnivores sharing the same geographic range .

this can be seen today in africa , with wild dogs and hyenas competing with lions and other big cats for food .

north american carnivores in the past may have followed similar dynamics and much of the competition is found among species of the dog family and from ancient felids and dogs .

the dog family , which includes wolves and coyotes ( pictured ) , originated in north america about 40 million years ago . they reached maximum diversity in the continent around 22 million years ago when more than 30 species roamed the land mass at the same time

cladogram : this is a manually constructed cladogram that i use when teaching . it demonstrates the three major clades , or divisions of living families within the order carnivora . in blue is the large and diverse group known as the arctoids . the canids ( dogs , wolves , coyotes , etc , ) are represented by a single lineage in green . the cats , hyenas , mongoose and viverrids are the red group known as the aeluroids . characters 1 , 2 , and 3 are hypothesized to unite all of carnivora :

character 1 is use of the upper fourth premolar ( p4 ) and lower first molar ( m1 ) by all members of the order carnivora to eat meat . this is called the p4 / m1 carnassial apparatus .

character 2 is near and dear to all veterinarians who practice on dogs and cats . character 2 is the presence of anal sacs . anal sacs are hypothesized to be present in the ancestor of carnivora due to its widespread distribution among all of the living members . anal sacs are lost or reduced only in bears and in the aquatic families ( seals , sea lions , walrus and otters ) .

character 3 is the primitive carnivoran dentition : 4 premolars and 3 molars in both the upper and lower dentition .

character 4 unites all of the living families of carnivora . character 4 is the development of an ossified bulla covering the middle ear , a bony covering for the ear apparatus . the primitive carnivorans ( carnivoran = member of the order carnivora ) had a single - chambered bulla covered by cartilage .

character 6 diagnoses the four closely related families referred to as the aeluroids or the sub - order aeluroidea . character 6 is a modification of the primitive single - chambered bulla : the development of a two - chambered bulla . evidence of character 6 can be seen in the ventral skull and in the basicranial photograph .

from 1932 to 1965 , childs frick sent numerous collecting parties into the fossiliferous terrestrial localities of tertiary north america . the frick laboratory assembled a magnificent collection of fossil mammals as a result of these expeditions . now referred to as the frick collection , this assemblage of fossil mammals is housed in the collections of the division of paleontology of the american museum of natural history . within the frick collection is the world ' s most comprehensive fossil felid collection . fossils of the first felids to arrive in north america , in the late hemingfordian , were collected in localities of the sheep creek formation of nebraska and the tesuque formation of new mexico . the earliest known partial felid skeleton ( fam 62128 ) was recovered from the nambé member of the tesuque formation of new mexico and described by me in 2001 . photo by chester tarka of the amnh .
