We don't need a bigger gun, just more ammo Twisted Evil



To Quote Samuel L. Jackson, as Ordell Robbie in "Jackie Brown"

Quote:
AK-47. The very best there is. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every mother****** in the room, accept no substitutes.



I'm sure that if some danged 'ol ice can take out a wooly mammoth, we should have no problems Laughing

"wonder if they will be good eating" If they have already been hunted to extinction before guns they must be good eating. Very Happy

Here clone this for us!

Entelodont was one of the most impressive mammals to have lived, in Florida, during the Miocene Period, about 18 Million Years ago. This prehistoric beast has been called by many names, such as the “Devil Pig” or “Terrible Pig” and was a huge pig-like animal or Artiodactyl (even-toed ungulate). Entelodon meaning “Perfect Toothed”.

Considered an omnivore, this prehistoric pig may have eaten almost anything it wanted, including scavenging of carcasses. It definitely was big enough to, over 10ft. (3M) in length, 6ft. (2M) at the shoulder and having a skull 4ft. long and almost 3ft. wide.

This Extinct Giant Hog had bony protrusions on its lower jaws and head, with giant blunt and blocky incisors, canines and massive teeth, in general. This Bone-Crushing Scavenger had huge massive jaws with tremendous power. Its long legs suggest that it may have been a fast runner.

In Florida, Daeodon species is the largest and the last of its group. Definitely, one of the top predators of its day.

Thanks for thinking of me, but I need more lessons to attempt that one. Seeing that prehistoric monster pig and thinking of the raptors on Jurassic Park gives me the chills. I'm with s10.
