This image depicts a museum diorama behind a reflective glass panel, located in Asenovgrad, Bulgaria. The scene portrays a prehistoric landscape with a focus on predatory and scavenging activity. In the foreground, a detailed, three-dimensional reconstruction features a large, recumbent saber-toothed cat (likely *Homotherium* or similar species) with its mouth open, showcasing prominent fangs. Adjacent to it, a smaller, juvenile saber-toothed cat stands atop the carcass of a deceased, gray, juvenile proboscidean (an elephant-like mammal with small tusks, possibly a *Deinotherium* or early gomphothere), which lies on its left side with visible red coloration suggesting wounds or blood. The ground beneath the figures consists of scattered gravel, rocks, dry earth, and sparse, brittle vegetation including branches and dried grasses, indicating an arid environment. The background is a painted mural illustrating an expansive, undulating plain under a cloudy sky, with distant hills or mountains. This backdrop extends the prehistoric ecosystem, showing numerous herds of various extinct mammals: multiple large elephant-like creatures, groups of ancestral horses, deer-like animals, rhinoceroses, and other ungulates. On the right side of the painted scene, two hyena-like creatures (possibly *Pachycrocuta*) are depicted approaching. Reflections of overhead rectangular fluorescent lights are visible on the protective glass enclosure.
