Twelve papers describe the history of Smilodon discoveries, the phylogenetic context of the sabertooth cat, killing biomechanics and tooth development in Smilodon fatalis, skull and postcranial morphology, and paleopathology research conducted at Rancho La Brea. New studies reveal two faunas containing Smilodon in South America and one in South Carolina, and analyze recent findings on ontogeny and growth in Smilodon and the dietary ecology of the animal.
