MODERATORS
bears, including grizzlies, were medium-sized predators in pleistocene north america. there were at least four more formidable predators until like 10K years ago; the reason they seem silly for apex predators is that we killed the real ones
I like giant ground sloths. They just wanna eat leaves all day, but will absolutely kill you just as fast as a bear. Those scientists gotta get the cloning vats running.
The biggest one of these was the short-faced bear, and i wouldn't be surprised if they looked even sillier.
yeah if polar bears are still cute shortfaces could probably have managed
I do wonder whether smilodon was cute in some small and unexpected way. probably.
