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 ...
