As they are extinct there is little importance to modern societies other than those people that study prehistoric animals.
The saber tooth tiger is extinct today.
Sabertoothed tiger
The real scientific name for sabertoothed tigers of all ages was smilodon.
There were many kinds of sabertoothed cats, and they varied in size from that of a large house cat to that of a tiger or lion, and some were even bigger. The classic saber toothed "tiger" is called Smilodon and the South American species could weigh up to 500 kgs!

Cats did not evolve from sabertoothed tigers. Rather, sabertoothed cats evolved from other cats. Modern apes evolved from miocene apes, which were somewhat similar. Miocene apes evolved from some lemur-like primate, or perhaps something like a lorise. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loris
A lot of people will say lion , however they are wrong because they are just stupid lion fans that know nothing about a tiger's advantages. The tiger will win because it is stronger! heavier, more agile, bigger, has longer canines, is a better fighter, is smarter, and is not lazy and waits for females to hunt. Tigers rule and lions are no sicken beans

Tiger cubs don't have a niche. A niche is a role in the ecosystem, and tiger cubs don't fill any role in the ecosystem until they become independent. Adult tigers fill the niche of apex predator.
