Saber-tooth tiger milk tooth, 3 inches
A three-inch milk canine of Smilodon fatalis from Rancho La Brea, Los Angeles, complete with crown, tip and root.
About the asset
Smilodon fatalis, the saber-toothed cat, shed its milk canines as the adult sabers came in. This is one of those deciduous teeth, roughly three inches long, from the Rancho La Brea deposits in Los Angeles that produced most of what is known about the species.
The tooth is complete: crown, tip and root all present. Milk teeth are thin-walled and were shed and scattered rather than preserved with a skeleton, so a complete example is the uncommon case.
Smilodon’s canines grew about twice as fast as a modern lion’s or tiger’s and reached full size by about three years of age.
