Saber-toothed tigers, or Smilodons, were apex predators from the Pliocene to the Late Pleistocene. Their diet consisted primarily of large herbivores, including:
- Mammoths
- Horses
- Bison
- Camels
- Ground sloths
- Deer
- Other large mammals
Hunting strategy: They were ambush predators that used powerful legs and claws to bring down prey. Their saber teeth likely inflicted deep wounds, and they may have hunted in packs.
Smilodons are extinct, so there is no saber-toothed tiger diet to replicate today.
