[11] Geocapromys pleistocenicus: Cuba Extinct after European contact. [2] Antillean cave rat: Heteropsomys antillensis: Puerto Rico Possibly extinct after European contact. [2 ...
Pseudaelurus is a prehistoric cat that lived in Europe, Asia and North America in the Miocene between approximately twenty and eight million years ago. It is considered to be a paraphyletic grade ancestral to living felines and pantherines as well as the extinct machairodonts (saber-tooths), and is a successor to Proailurus.
Mastocytoma are the second most common skin tumor in cats. [14] They are usually single nodules in the skin, most commonly on the head and neck; in about one quarter of cats, the nodules become ulcerated. [14] Multiple nodules occur in about 20% of cases. [14] Melanomas are not common in cats but when they are, they manifest as basal cell ...
