The Smilodon, commonly known as the saber-toothed tiger, was an extinct large feline that lived during the Pleistocene, between 2.5 million and 10,000 years ago. It was a member of the felid family and was distinguished by its unique features, particularly its huge saber-shaped upper canines.

The Smilodon was larger than present-day tigers, with a length of about 1.6-1.8 meters and a height at withers of about 1 meter. Its weight could range from 200 to 400 kilograms. The Smilodon's most distinctive feature were its upper canines, which could reach a length of more than 20 centimeters. These canines were extremely sharp and adapted for grasping and stinging prey. Smilodon is believed to have been a specialized predator, hunting large mammals such as Pleistocene herbivores. Its hunting technique was probably based on a powerful pounce and the use of its canines to maul the throat of prey. It is likely that its powerful bite was capable of severely damaging the bones of its victims.

Despite its impressive appearance, Smilodon was not closely related to present-day tigers, but represented a separate evolutionary branch. It is thought to have become extinct due to climate change and the disappearance of its main prey at the end of the Pleistocene.
