Scientists study ‘very rare’ frozen remains of 35,000-year-old saber-toothed cub

Scientist were able to study a saber-toothed cub dating back 35,000 years due to its well-preserved condition from being protected by ice. Much of the three-week old cub was left intact, even its fur.

The discovery of frozen remains from the Late Pleistocene period is "very rare," according to the published research, though most discovered in Russia lie in the Indigirka River basin, the authors note.  Ashlyn Messier is a writer for Fox News Digital. 

The mummified cub remained well-preserved, frozen in time for thousands of years. The frozen nature of this find left it in impressive condition, even still containing fur.
