Don't worry it never happened. They were solitary. Most bones were from individual that never met eachother. All you need is a few bear per centuries dying in the cave and boom, over time you get hundreds of them lying there
Years ago at a special museum exhibit the were skeletons of Cave, California, various modern lions, and tigers. The Cave Lion was the thing of nightmares. Just seeing a pic or vid of the difference doesn't do it justice.

"sir we've just discovered a bear, wolf, lion, hyena and many other species of animals in Europe. We need some names for them." "Just put the word cave in front of all of them."
Middle of the night on a freezing cold ice age europe night and you see some eyes lit up from your campfire and then hear some hyena "laughing" noises then see many more eyes in the darkness and then they all decent onto your tribe eating your friends and family alive. Ye terrifying, I would rather get taken out by the cave bears or cave lions at that point☠️
02:40 Of course, the cold climate cannot be the reason why there are no big felines in Europe. The best counterargument is the existence of the largest living cat, the Siberian tiger. In fact, mammals living in colder climates even tend to be larger than their warmer climate counterparts. Polar bears, for example, are huge. A similar thing seems to hold for birds: The emperor penguin lives in Antarctica.
Historically there were Caspian tigers living as far west as Ukraine until the end of the 19th century, and Lions lived in Greece, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, etc until the start of AD times and much later if you count Turkey as part of Europe, so it’s not that Europe cannot have big cats, but that we hunted them out much later on.
23:45 That charging rhino video at the end was hilarious. Even Superman would look at that and say "Whoa there Ug, that doesn't look like a smart move!"
Could you do a video about Sundaland? It’s a cool lost land mass no one really talks about dispite it having giant tiger, giant tortoise, giant tapirs and bovids with massive horns. Small elephants and rhinos. As well as homo erectus, gigantopithecus and a massive crocodile known as Crocodylus sp. Specimen CD 14 that might have been up to two tons or more but was once called Crocodylus ossifragus
@@chubibi06 Well, it was Sumatra, Borneo, Palawan, Java and Bali connected to each other and to mainland southeast asia because of the low sea levels at that time. That is the reason we have today many species that are spread throughout these islands that came from the mainland. They walked to these places during the last ice age.
@@ilkoderez601 You are welcome to leave civilisation and move into the woods without electricity, running water, food and modern healthcare. No one is forcing you to stay and BENEFIT from human civilisation.
one of the first book series i read as a kid was called wolf brother, it did a really good job of illustrating how terrifying it would be to live in mesolithic europe. there was this heavy dread over everything
2:25 Siberian Tigers are a thing, though, and they are the biggest of big cats. And if they don't know that, most people also vaguely know about saber tooth tiger, or saw the Ice Age movies.
European megafauna had it rough. They got screwed over so hard. First there were the Pleistocene glaciations, and just looking at it geographically the European continent is a terrible place to want to live during that period as abrupt climate change was the norm. The glaciations obviously affect high and mid-latitudes much more strongly than lower ones but it’s not just that. European megafauna repeatedly contracted and expanded their range just like animals in North America, but the difference is that Europe is beset by tall east-west mountain ranges which are hard to cross if moving north to south or vice versa whereas animals in the eastern half of America can move around freely because the only mountains there are the medium-sized and easily bypassable Appalachians. As a result of animals in Europe having a harder time being able to get where they need to, the extinction rate was probably higher for most of the Pleistocene. We also see them (often)not reaching quite the sizes of their North American counterparts. Many also became isolated in small pockets of temperate refugia which made them especially vulnerable to humans and Neanderthals. I believe this is what happened to cave bears. Then you have the high human density from the Neolithic going into the modern era, which did a number on the megafauna that actually managed to survive. Europe now seems like a land nearly devoid of animals for this reason.
For that reason and also overpopulation.... exceeding the carrying capacity of what can be sustained by the wild (hence the need for domestication of plants and animals).
every single time i see ferocious wolves i cant help but look at my little chihuahua and laugh. thousands and thousands of years ago humans were so determined to pet some doggies that we turned a horrifying predator into a silly little dude that needs a sweater in the colder months and relies on me to boil chicken and rice for him when he's mildly ill. truly an apex predator
Yeah, like the North Sea and codfish these days... anywhere where a warm current meets a cold current, like Gulf of Mexico vs polar region or Chilean ENSO it seems.
A step is a landscape that puts all its nutrients into grasses instead of trees. Trees are famous for locking up carbohydrates into wood which is way less accessible than the carbohydrates in grass. So a step can support more/bigger animals than a forest
Imagine if they never went extinct and lasted all the way to the present day. So that people in this area would record with cameras, camcorders, and smartphones?
I'm staying out of Australia (if I can help it) for similar reasons. Worst thing I heard about animals in my country is that people saw something that looked like bear pawns on soil deep in mountain village my parents are from but at the same time no one saw bears in that parts for 200 years.
Out of all of these that surprised me were the giant deers, the cave wolves, and especially the cave hyenas. Like dang, honestly they gotta make a documentary of the ice age in Europe.
Hyenas have always been so goated 🔥 the fact that wolves, lions, and even bears and early humans were frightened of these guys speaks volume of how op they were
What I want to know is how did the dog not wake up earlier?! My dog will wake up to bark at this one fat squirrel that climbs up the bird feeder right by the window where she sleeps. It's like she senses it from outside, in her sleep. I'm glad the dog survived, but I don't get how it had no idea.
Cave lions werent the only lions in europe at the time, the modern african lion also coexisted in europe in souther regions and even lived till ancieng greek times.
Trogontherium went extinct during the middle pleistocene some 200.000 years ago. It also wasn’t terrestrial and had a diet mainly made up of aquatic vegetation.
The presence of cave lions in Europe may explain why the lion is a popular animal in European heraldry. Aside from cave paintings, the collective memory of cave lions before going extinct inspired both fear and awe to prehistoric humans that lasted til recent times.

what The last segment of the video really tells me is that, it was highly unlikely that humans even caused the megafaunal extinction at the end of the ice age
Just a heads up: so far we know of Homo Sapien in the very middle of France 60 000 years ago. Grotte Mandrin is the place and it is such a beautiful spot our ancestors chose. Perfect place to survey the land around it 360 degrees. The Nehandertals were known to arise in europe between 400k and 500k years ago so they would have had to fend from ALL of these animals. But the Homo genus itself is known to have colonized Europe at least 1.7 to 2.1 million years ago now. The more we found the more questions we find. But also... The more we find, the more we understand how much of a unit a human being is in numbers. Managing to be THAT widespread during a time where literal monsters walked the nights AND days!
8:17 im impressed more by peoples creativity to come up with such scenes than that cat. While its debatably unrealistic, national geography dicumenraries on hyenadon, bear dig etc also have such scenes. Where bear dogs just scratch a hyenadon like modern humans slap each other disrespectably . But this is good. This will happen to you if you find yourself dragging backwards on hands while facing a big cat. Thats why they say be tall, move around, appear big and make noise.
I read these harsh ice age conditions nay be some of the main reasons behind Europe having historically such a brutal war and conquest culture compared to most of the world.
