Description A little pride of Eurasian cave lions(Panthera leo spelaea) are trying to bring down a young,yet robust woolly rhino(Coelodonta antiquitatis).
Even today,African Lions are known to attack big animals like hippos and elephants when they starve,specially in dry seasons.
Created by Photoshop CS6 and Artrage studio pro and Bamboo Wacom pen&touch in approximately 15 hours.

Hope you like it!

Hi
Thanks a lot.I didn't get what all the site is about,since it's Hungarian...I find my works in some other sites without permission this days...seems I should use some watermark or something.

They wrote about Sasha, the little wooly rhino baby and its mummy... I think I am the only one in Hungary who write about paleo-news and always mention our great paleoartists... :/

I am not that strict...
If my work helps them to spread the paleoart let them use it.maybe I send them an Email or something.

They would never have dared to attack an full grown adult,even this adolescent would have been a difficult task.

ThanksActually a woolly rhino was pretty similar to a white rhino on the matter of body proportions,but I didn't take advantage of that similarity My woolly here has been built from scratch.

RegulaDestroya [2013-07-26 06:43:22 +0000 UTC]

You know, its funny...I watch a lot of documentaries about lions, and I've never seen lions even attempt to take down a rhino...at least none that I can remember...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Leogon In reply to RegulaDestroya [2013-07-27 11:22:51 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the comment. The cave lions were bigger and heavier than modern African lions.(about 30%) and this could be an advantage for them.

Actually Nobody can tell confidently that lions don't attack rhinos at all.I think I've read a few reports on it, and the lions do attack hippos and elephant ,even rhino calves.


On the other hand,this isn't some documentary and I used my imagination to create a scene that "might" be possible.

RegulaDestroya In reply to Leogon [2013-07-28 07:34:28 +0000 UTC]

If they can take down an elephant, then they can take down a rhino...And even though I have never seen them do it myself, I imagine it would look just like your art piece here....except with more lions


Excellent work!

Yes I agree with you! It needs some more lions!
