The Sabertooth tiger has been extinct for about 15,000 years, and there was no written languages we know of at that time, so early man had no way of passing on to us the sound he heard from the sabertooth. But given it's similarities in most ways to the the modern large cats, we can probably assume it sounded much like a tiger sounds today.

Bengal tigers make similar sounds to other big cats. They can roar or growl, and make a few other sounds for communication. However, like other big cats, they cannot purr.

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

What sounds does a tiger make?

Tigers make lots of sounds. They growl, snarl, roar, whoof, meow, chuff, and they also do something called pooking.Pooking is a loud, clear, flat call, which some people think is the tiger's attempt to mimic a type of deer that is often the tiger's prey. They think the tiger makes this sound to try to fool the deer into thinking that one of its own is close by, when really, it's a tiger in disguise.Tigers cannot purr, but instead they make a chuffing sound where they force the air out of their nose. This is also called prusten. Folks who study tigers do recognize chuffing as an expression of friendliness. Adult tigers will chuff in a greeting to other adult tigers, if they do not sense their territory or food is being threatened, or they will make the chuffing sound to their cubs. A tiger will also sometimes make this sound at the sight of people bringing food for it to eat.The word prusten is German for "sneeze" or "snorting in laughter." I don't think that matches exactly with the sound the tiger makes, but I suppose it's the thing we naturally do that comes closest. People can mimic this sound by exhaling air in a rush over the lips, like a forceful "f" sound, while at the same time rolling the tongue against the roof of the mouth. If you make this sound to a tiger in the zoo, the tiger might chuff back at you.

Which is more powerful - tiger or lion?

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
