Paraenhydrocyon
Paraenhydrocyon is an extinct genus of bone crushing omnivorous early canid which inhabited North America during the Early Miocene, 24.8—20.4 Ma, existing for approximately.
The dentition suggests that this animal was a hypercarnivore or mesocarnivore. In addition to its retention of several primitive cranial characters, this includes unique sharp-tipped, slender premolars that clearly contrast with the strong premolars of the Mesocyon–''Enhydrocyon'' group, but also parallels that clade by having a reduced metaconid cusp on the lower molars.
