One or two small details:

"use their teeth to simultaneously slash the throat." Simultaneously with what?

"distress calls of the trapped prey animals would have lasted longer that the playbacks" What?

Machairodontinae contains images of Smilodon skulls showing the maximum gape. That article (as you've noted) needs cutting as it contains materials that (this is what concerns us) probably belong here. I think at least the gape images (Smilodon, domestic cat for comparison) should come here now; perhaps this would also be a good moment to bring across some of the gape text that specifically concerns Smilodon.

We hear very little about S. gracilis compared to the other two species.


 * There isn't much available, at least that I can access. LittleJerry (talk) 22:59, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
