The cave lion ranged from Iberia to Alaska and is among the best documented of Ice Age predators, thanks to the Palaeolithic artists who drew it on cave walls at Chauvet. Those drawings show males without the full mane of modern African lions, and the reconstruction follows that evidence rather than assuming a modern template.
