Description Kerberos langebadreae, a recently-discovered monster hyaenodont from prehistoric France. Although smaller than more famous relatives such as Megistotherium, he was roughly the size of a bear and still the biggest predator in the region. And he's a good contender for most metal sounding genus name, for sure.

In case you couldn't tell, he's also eating a delicious leg of some description. I'm not sure what animal it's from, but I know it is definitely missing a leg now.

Mechanical pencils are my new love! Still need to work on backgrounds though... :/

When was this published? I haven't heard about it at all.ย 
So they just went and named it after Hades' pet? Awesome name

Last year -ย here's ย a good summary article with a link to the paper. There's already another reconstruction on the internet which is very good, I hope I haven't done too bad a job with mine.

Yeah - the name is super! Mythology-inspired scientific names are the best haha.
