The Siberian ice holds unsuspected secrets. In 2020, an exceptional discovery was made near the Badyarikha River: that of a baby saber-toothed tiger, frozen in time for nearly 36,000 years.
Buried in the permafrost was the 37,000-year-old mummified body of a baby sabre-toothed tiger. The kitten was found frozen in a block of ice in Yakutia, and was astonishingly perfectly preserved.
