The last American lions died out here about 13 thousand years ago. There was all kinds of wild-ass shit roaming around here back then. Humans have been wrecking the world's ecosystems far before the industrial revolution, we just kicked it into overdrive the past 200 years.

It was about 25% larger than the modern lion, making it one of the largest known felids to ever exist, and an important apex predator.

That would be effective to get attention.
