Biology[]
The sabre cat has reddish-brown fur which helps it camouflage with grass. They occasionally travel in packs of two or three, though they usually travel alone. Once a sabre cat catches sight of prey, it will crouch and slowly move towards it until pouncing at the right moment. Due to their camouflaged coats, they can easily ambush the unwary. They may lurk in nooks under hills just off the road, poised to pounce on anyone who walks by. Sabre Cats are large, powerful, and fast and have evolved two long sharp canine teeth.
