Nimravides the similarities between them at first glance, based on autapomorphies in the skeleton, the two animals are too different to be classified as species of the same genus, and thus, "Nimravides" remains separate as its own genus within the Homotherini. Nimravides Nimravides is a genus of extinct saber-toothed cats that lived in North America during the middle and late Miocene, between 13.6 and 4.9 Ma. Despite its scientific name, "Nimravides" does not belong to the Nimravidae, but is a true cat, belonging to the family Felidae. "Nimravides catacopsis", one of the largest and latest species, was quite large, measuring at
Felidae Conservation Fund region's wildlife populations. In addition, the study uses GPS collars equipped with accelerometers to record detailed information on mountain lion movements that will reveal new insights into their behavior and physiology. Felidae is working with Dr. Chris Wilmers of UC Santa Cruz, along with the California Department of Fish and Game and California State Parks. The Patagonia Puma Project in Chile is a long-term ecological study by Dr. Heiko Wittmer of UC Davis which examines the dynamics relating to the puma’s role in the decline of the huemul deer. The researchers hope to exonerate the puma from major blame in
