Saber-tooth Cat Tooth

Picture of a display at the Red Rock Canyon State park in California, USA as of October 2013. It shows a tooth and part of the jaw from a saber tooth cat and in the background is a cougar skull for comparison. The fossils are from the late Miocene and were found in the Dove Spring Formation.
