Similar to the modern cheetah, with faces shortened and nasal cavities expanded for increased oxygen capacity, and legs proportioned for swift running. These similarities may not be inherited from a common ancestor, but may instead result from either parallel or convergent evolution. Larger than a modern cheetah and similar in size to a modern northern cougar. It is most closely related to the Puma and not to the modern cheetah of Africa and Asia.
Why Did They Go Extinct:Some ideas as to the cause of the mass extinction is the climate change, human pressure, or a possible meteoric/comet impact.
