Description

The image shows a museum display featuring a sculpture of a Smilodon (saber-toothed cat) and a Smilodon puppet. The larger Smilodon sculpture is seated, featuring a gray and brown patterned coat and large saber teeth. A small puppet of a Smilodon sits on a rock next to the sculpture, with its mouth open, revealing its teeth. Above, puppet strings are visible. The background transitions from blue and green on the left to orange and yellow on the right. Text promoting the La Brea Tar Pits & Museum appears on the left side of the image.
