Hyaenodon ("hyena-tooth") is an extinct genus of carnivorous placental mammals from extinct tribe Hyaenodontini within extinct subfamily Hyaenodontinae (in extinct family Hyaenodontidae), [19] that lived in Eurasia and North America from the middle Eocene, throughout the Oligocene, to the early Miocene.
Other large hyaenodonts include two close and later-surviving relatives of Simbakubwa, Hyainailouros and Megistotherium (the latter likely being the largest in the group), and the much earlier-living Hyaenodon gigas (the largest species from genus Hyaenodon), which may have been as large as 1.4 m high at the shoulder, 3.0 m long and weighed ...
