Tiger skull with sword teeth listed at 1.5M
A complete skull of Smilodon fatalis has been revealed—one of the rare fossils showcased by Christie's auction house in London, with an estimated value of over $1.5 million. The fossil dates back between 11,000 and 70,000 years ago and is notable for being one of the most complete specimens. It was discovered in 2008 in Florida. Smilodon fatalis, a predator that coexisted with humans, used its long canines (up to 17.78 cm) to strike large prey. Studies indicate that it went extinct approximately 10,000 years ago, following the end of the last Ice Age.
