Mummified lion cubs in Siberian deep freeze
by Phil Robinson
Two extinct Eurasian cave lion cubs have been recovered from permafrost on the bank of the Uyandina River, Siberia. Flooding and landslides along the rivers banks in the summer of 2015 revealed an ice lens in which the cubs remains were spotted. They are thought to have been only a week or two old at death, as their baby teeth had not yet erupted. But they were the size of full-grown domestic cats.

Interesting. I’ve read about other finds that have been made there. As if something happened in an instant to freeze dry the specimens. I thought it was something about mastadons with grass or whatever still in their mouths. Must have been a case of instant global cooling. Yeah, we control what the weather does. And, yeah, I’m a proud evil denier questioning the brilliant scientists conclusions. Shame on me. ;-)

Probably no longer good to eat.
Might could make a soup or something.

Frozen in time: Cave lions crushed to death in Siberia were perfectly preserved in ice for 30,000 years
- Autopsies have shown that one of the cubs was in pristine condition
- The cubs were one week old when they died, after their den collapsed
- A South Korean cloning guru had been hoping to clone one of the animals
- But autopsy showed DNA is in 'terrible condition' so cloning is impossible

Any viable genetic material? Cloning via modern big cat breeds possible?

I’ve read pretty much the same thing, except there were flowers in their mouths. Think of how cold it would have to get to freeze and preserve something the size of a mammoth or mastodon. I suppose if they were at the bottom of a mountain that had a huge avalanche, but I don’t know if there are such mountains in the area.

Damn global cooling.The worst thing about global cooling is that it can lead to global warming, and vise-versa.

We’ve found people and creatures frozen in ice due to sudden freezing, but never the charred remains of people destroyed by global warming. Just saying...

I’m sure you’ll remember back in the last century. All the
scientists “in the know” were predicting that there was
going to be another Ice Age due to hit before the end of
the century. Brrrr..rrrrr!

One would think interior of bones or teeth would contain viable DNA. We’ve gotten DNA from Neanderthal bones that was not frozen.

To think these critters walked the earth 30,000 years ago. That’s about 6 times the time span of the pyramids. Yet it’s only a drop in the bucket of the length of time animals have walked the earth. The first to do so I think was around 350 MILLION years ago.
