Tigre de montagne

Tigres de montagne (French: "mountain tiger") are a group of cryptid cats reported from mountainous regions of northern Central Africa, mainly in Chad, the Central African Republic, and South Sudan. They are distinguished by their large size, red coats, and prominent fangs. Cryptozoologists speculate that they may be surviving sabre-toothed cats (subfamily Machairodontinae), with which they have sometimes been identified by witnesses.
