Plesiogulo is a genus of prehistoric carnivore that lived from the Miocene to the Pliocene of Africa, Eurasia, and North America. An ancestral relationship to the wolverine (Gulo gulo) was once suggested, but it is no longer considered likely. However, some authorities still consider it a member of the Guloninae.
