I new him because we enlisted his Dryfus Lion and one of his tigers to carry out experiments with bones (this is something archaeologists do). In North America, you’ve got Bears at the large end, Cats in the middle, and at the smaller end, the Mustilids. That was one of his cats. He also had tigers, cougars, and some other animals.
