The Evolution of Cats - Killarney Cat Hospital
In 1997, Warren E. Johnson and Stephen J. O’Brien performed DNA analyses of 37 living cat species, which allowed them to divide today’s cats into 8 lineages. The great roaring cats (lions, leopards, jaguars, tigers) were the first to branch off, about 6.4 million years ago.
Scientists compared DNA sequences in all 37 species of cats to determine the tree’s branches. Fossils provided dates that indicate when major branching occurred. additional pieces of information to fill out our scenario and discern where cats first arose and how they came to have their current distribu-tion around the world.
