If you want to understand a cat, you must first understand its ancestors for eighteen generations!
The cat's ancestor - was a beast
I'm sure a lot of people are as curious as I am
How in the world can there be such a cute little thing as a cat?
Where did they come from?
So the old problem of the cat sick sister was committed again, and she specially bought a book to study the old ancestor of the cat, and did not know that the original cat and the dog were born from the same root.
Slender-toothed beasts
The ancestors of cats were first a carnivore called "slender-toothed beasts", which lived about and then slowly evolved into the "proto-red pandas" known as the ancestors of cats (not the ones we see now), also known as the first cats.
I don't know if it is the cat sick sister's eyes are not good, how to see the fine tooth beast is like a big rat, it is difficult to imagine that it is the ancestor of the cat that eats cute and grows up.
First cat
After 20 million years of evolution, the big rat transformed into the first cat, and already has the shadow of a feline on its body.
Cat ancestor - slender tooth animal Ancestor of the cat family - the original red panda
You would never have imagined that the slender-toothed beast is not only the ancestor of cats, but also the carnivores such as dogs and maned dogs.
Really, the water washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the family did not recognize the family!
The origin of the domestic cat
Libyan cat
The prototype of the domestic cat is the Libyan cat, which evolved from the original red panda and still lives in some parts of Africa and Southeast Asia.
At that time, the ancient Egyptians fed many Libyan cats in order to protect the barn from rat infestation, which is identified as the origin of the domestic cat.
Features: Like to sleep during the day and travel at night
To this day, modern cats still retain this habit of life.
Don't panic, the cat sick sister takes everyone to re-comb the evolutionary history of cats.
