## Appearance

### Sabertooth Tiger

The Sabertooth Tiger has a brown body three dark stripes on its back. Two smaller stripes are also seen on its tail. It has small ears with dark outline and a button nose. On the sides of its nose are two curved fangs, like its extinct counterpart. All over the Sabertooth's body, it has tufts of fur sticking out, and a small 'mane' around the middle of its head where a large clump of fur is.

### Golden Sabertooth

The Golden Sabertooth looks like the default one, except it has golden fur and tusks. It has more fur around its snout and frowning eyes.

### Margala Sabertooth

The Margala Sabertooth has orange-red fur, with much darker brown stripes. It also has a small quantity of white hair in the middle. Its eyes are narrowed.

### Techno Sabertooth

The Techno Sabertooth has light gray fur with a tinge of pink and red zig-zag stripes. It has considerably less fur, with the only visible fur being the red tuft marking on its narrow head and beside its snout. Its ears have red inside. The fangs are red, and the end of its tail is tipped in the same color.

### Strawbertooth

The Strawbertooth is light red with pale yellow seeds, resembling a strawberry that has been cut open. Its ears are small strawberries, each with two seeds imbedded in. Its eyes are more triangular, and its snout is pink. The Strawbertooth's nose is red. It has yellow freckles and tusks the same color. Behind its head is a small ruff of green leaves. The Animal's tail is another bunch of leaves.

### Old/Legacy

The old Sabertooth is brown with 3 darker stripes down its body (slightly resembling a claw slash). It has a short snout with a black circle for a nose, and two long curved spikes acting as its tusks. A triangle representing its fur sticks out away from its snout. Its ears are semicircles with a thin dark border, and the Sabertooth's tail is short with a darker tip.

## Strategy

If you see prey, pursue it and slash it with your claws, then eat it before it can revive. If it gets onto a rock, use your ability to knock it off. (The ability sends smaller animals flying if on ice.)

Polar Bears are your best bet, this is because you can climb hills and so can they, make sure to get close enough to slash it so you don't miss and end up being slashed back by the Polar Bear, making it easier for them to escape. Wolverines are more valuable and can be easily eaten if you corner it into a hill, since you can climb them but they can't, however, their ability has a great knock-back and a lengthy stun which makes them hard to eat if they are not trapped anywhere.

When threatened by a predator (watch out for The Yeti's ability as it is very dangerous), slash it and then run away. Get in a hiding hole until your ability recharges, then it comes, tail-bite it and then slash it so you can get back to the hole. (Beware of The Yeti as they have a deadly ability) If you repeat the process, it will eventually die from tail-biting or from the scratching and it'll turn into meat. You can also use a hill instead of a hiding hole due to your ability. If a Mammoth tries to attack you, go outside of the arctic because they are slower there, and then climb onto a hill, preferably one with water next to it. The Mammoth cannot reach you there and its snowballs can't either, so you can just wait there until danger leaves, and slash it to encourage leaving. Another option is to go to mud for mammoths and yetis. If a Big Goat is targeting you, go to either mud or water where it will be slow, then you can kill it.

Since one claw slash can slash up to 2 animals, your special double slash can slash up to 4 animals at a time! This gives you an advantage against several predators teaming, and can eliminate competition with other Sabertooth Tigers, not to mention the fact that you can destroy prey that try to gang up on you.

If there aren't a lot of animals to eat, eat Arctic Nuts, Pears and Red mushrooms both in and outside of the Arctic. You could also try farming Honey Bees from a Beehive. However, be aware of potential predators such as the Elephant, that may also try to eat bees, and are also able to kill them in one shot.

When facing an Arctic-based predator such as The Snowman, Yeti or an Ice Monster, stay as far away as you can at all times. The Yeti's ability is most harmful, but the Ice Monster can also freeze-bite you and slow you down. The best way to avoid these predators is to flee in either a tree, or the mud. The latter is a more sustainable option as you can gain water whilst fleeing, whereas any aforementioned predator can easily camp you in a tree where you'll slowly drain away any remaining water.

Also, if you are near a Snowman or a Yeti, you can go to the land biome and go as near as possible to the mud. You are faster than they are, and there will usually be a fair amount of food there; better if there's a few Honey Bees or a beehive which you can easily dominate with your ability, by pressing `W` on your keyboard.
