Percrocuta is a Percrocutid from Miocene Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Characteristics[]
It had a length of 5 feet. It was also much bigger than its modern relatives. Like the spotted hyena, it had a robust skull and powerful jaws. Similar to modern hyaenids, its hind legs were shorter than the front legs, resulting in a characteristic sloping back.
