Bring the Prehistoric Apex Predator to Life
The Amphicyon ingens, often referred to as the “bear dog,” was one of the most formidable land predators of the Miocene epoch. With a combination of bear-like strength and the agility of large canines, this extinct carnivore ruled the landscapes of North America millions of years ago. Now, you can own a meticulously designed life-size 3D printable skull that captures the power and anatomy of this prehistoric giant.

A Glimpse into the World of Amphicyon
Amphicyon ingens belonged to the family Amphicyonidae, a group of carnivorous mammals that shared characteristics with both bears and dogs. Unlike modern canines or ursids, these animals had a unique skeletal structure, allowing them to be both powerful hunters and scavengers. Fossil evidence suggests that Amphicyon ingens could weigh between 400 and 600 kg (880 to 1,320 lbs), making it one of the largest carnivores of its time.

This apex predator had a massive skull with a powerful bite force, capable of crushing bone. Its teeth were adapted for both slicing through flesh and grinding, indicating a diet that likely included large herbivores such as ancient horses, camels, and rhinos. Amphicyon ingens roamed open plains and woodlands, using both speed and sheer strength to dominate its environment.

About the 3D Model
This life-size 3D printable skull is an accurate representation of Amphicyon ingens, designed for researchers, collectors, and enthusiasts of paleontology. The model was created with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that every feature—from the robust jaw structure to the intricate sutures of the skull—remains faithful to fossil records.
