Look at those teeth! Clouded leopards have the distinction of possessing the longest canine teeth proportionally found in modern felines, making them somewhat like miniature sabertooth cats. However, unlike true sabertooths, both sets of the clouded leopard’s canines—top and bottom—are noticeably dagger-like. In their perilous, arboreal habitat, those long fangs undoubtedly provide an advantage in holding onto struggling prey. Both saber toothed cats and clouded leopards have an enormous gape, around 100 degrees, and various adaptations to support such a gape. In contrast a modern lion can open its mouth about 65 degrees. This could indicate that one lineage of modern cats, of which now only the clouded leopard is still present, has some adaptations in common with the true saber-toothed cats. #cloudedleopard #leopard #cloudedleopards #bigcat #cat #conservation #foryou #fyp #lookatthis #adorable #cuddly #epic #wantone #petstagram #godscreation #mylife #zoolife #zookeeper #farm #funnyanimals #animal #animallovers #neofelisnebulosa #sabertooth #lovemylife #zoo #natgeo #beastmode #naturelovers #explorepage #explore #travel #soflo #florida #miami
