There were many species of saber toothed cats, and they have been found on every continent except for Australia and Antarctica. Therefor, they probably lived in a wide variety of habitats. However, the most famous genus, Smilodon, lived on the open, grassy plains of North and South America up until 10,000 years ago.

There were many species of saber toothed cat, and fossils of them have been found in the Americas, Eurasia, and Africa. One of the most famous genera of saber toothed cat was Smilodon. They were primarily adapted for life in the grasslands, because that is where their large prey, such as mammoths and bison lived.

Saber toothed cats were a subfamily of cats that lived on every continent except Australia and Antarctica, and they existed for 28 million years. Therefor, they probably lived in a variety of habitats. Their ideal habitat, however, was probably grasslands with large mammals such as bison and mammoths.
