Smilodon

                                           Smilodon

Smilodon was a predator that livedduring the Pleistocene Epcoh, 2.8 million years ago. Smilodon's legth was  7.8 feet long and it's weight was up to 1,000 LBS. Smilodon's killing mechanism was it's massive jaws, teeth and also it's long canines. Smilodon preyed on horses, ground sloths, tapirs, bison, deer and American camels. Smilodon wasn't much as a fast runner instead it was a very strong and had lots of muscles.  Smilodon's bite force wasn't as strong as cats, like lions today. I think Smilodon is a pretty tough saber-cat, it could take out anything with it's amazing muscles.
