Were there any saber-tooth tigers in the 1600s?

Answer 1

Basically, no.

The giant reptiles we usually mean when we say "Dinosaurs" lived from about 230 million years ago until about 65 million years ago. The only mammals alive in those times were very small, early mammals... And those only toward the end of that period.

The first saber toothed cats appeared around 40 million years ago, missing the main dinosaur party by roughly 25 million years.

However, as a sneaky fine-print addition, you could say that we are around in dinosaur times, since under modern phylogenetic taxonomy, all neornithes (modern birds) are classed as "dinosaurs".

Answer 2

It is likely that sabre-tooth tiger was extinct before the Stone Age. It likely was extinct for many thousands of years before that time. Human beings however, were in existence while this animal still existed.

Answer 3

The Tertiary lasted from 65.5 million years ago until 1.8 million years ago. Saber toothed cats evolved about 28 million years ago and died out 10,000 years ago. Therefor, saber toothed cats did live in the Tertiary.

Answer 4

just fossils No, they've been extinct for much longer than that.

Answer 5

Yes, saber-toothed tigers lived during the Ice Age.

Answer 6

Saber-toothed cats, members of the subfamily Machairodontinae, evolved 23 million years ago. This was during the very beginning of the Neogene period.

Answer 7

In 1842 a Danish Paleontologist found Smilodon populator fossils in some caves near the small town of Lagoa Santa in Brazil.

Answer 8

No they died off around 40,000 years ago
