13,000 years ago in North America, an early Native American hunter must protect himself from an attacking saber-toothed Smilodon fatalis. Saber-toothed cats like Smilodon are often portrayed preying on “cavemen” in popular culture, yet I don’t think I’ve seen a lot of serious paleoart pitting them against the ancestors of Native Americans. This scene should do something to rectify that strange paucity.
