The development of the saber-toothed condition appears to represent a shift in function and killing behavior, rather than one in predator-prey relations. Many hypotheses exist concerning saber-tooth killing methods, some of which include attacking soft tissue such as the belly and throat, where biting deep was essential to generate killing blows.
Machairodontinae is an extinct subfamily of carnivoran mammals of the family Felidae (true cats). They were found in every continent except for Australia and Antarctica. The earliest species is known from the Middle Miocene, while the latest species Smilodon populator survived up to the Early Holocene (8,200~9,100 years ago).
Scientists have discovered a pristine fossil of a mummified saber-toothed kitten that had been frozen in the Russian tundra for about 37,000 years.
Thylacosmilus is an extinct genus of saber-toothed metatherian mammals that inhabited South America from the Late Miocene to Pliocene epochs.Though Thylacosmilus looks similar to the "saber-toothed cats", it was not a felid, like the well-known North American Smilodon, but a sparassodont, a group closely related to marsupials, and only superficially resembled other saber-toothed mammals due to ...
The only other mummified remains of a saber-tooth cub skull were discovered in Friesenhahn Cave in Bexar County, Texas, in the 1950s, Lopatin said. All other saber-tooth cub remains are "very ...

Machairodus (from Greek: μαχαίρα machaíra, 'knife' and Greek: ὀδούς odoús 'tooth') [2] is a genus of large machairodont or ''saber-toothed cat'' that lived in Africa, Eurasia and North America during the Late Miocene, from 12.5 million to 5.5 million years ago. It is the animal from which the subfamily Machairodontinae gets its name.
