Sabre-Toothed Tiger (Smilodon) Animatronic

This dramatic saber-toothed tiger animatronic recreates Smilodon fatalis at full size, posed mid-roar with its iconic canine fangs fully exposed. Hand-painted synthetic fur, layered muscle forms, and glass eyes deliver a startlingly lifelike presence that holds up to close inspection. The figure performs fluid head and jaw movement, shoulder shrugs, tail lashing, blinking, and a deep chest-breathing motion that makes it feel genuinely alive on the exhibit floor. A synchronized speaker plays growls, hisses, and territorial roars with adjustable volume and scheduled loops. Constructed from a steel skeleton, silicone skin, and flame-retardant materials, it suits museum dioramas, prehistoric exhibits, safari parks, and themed retail displays. Optional motion sensors trigger animations as visitors approach for a memorable interactive encounter.

Every Sabre-Toothed Tiger is covered by a 12-month warranty, a two-year spare-parts commitment and on-site installation support from our own engineers. Tell us your venue, theme and budget — we will tailor the size, movements, sound and finish to your project.
