The smilodon species are also known as Saber-Toothed Cats (which is inaccurate because there are other, unrelated saber-toothed "cats") or Saber-Toothed Tigers (which is inaccurate, as they were not tigers)http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/mammal/carnivora/sabretooth.html.

Smilodon populator ("the Smilodon that brings devastation") was a species of sabretoothed cat or smilodon (formerly known as the sabretooth tiger).
The Smilodon populator likely hunted in groups, because of its large leg muscles and stocky posture, it could not run fast enough to catch prey, so it would travel with others in order to ambush small grass-dwelling animals.
Fossils have been found of several Smilodon populator in a close vicinity, with one grass-dwelling animal near them, which gives further proof for the social Smilodon theory.

Smilodon fatalis, perhaps the most well known of all the saber-toothed cats, was a larged powerful feline predator that dominated the western coast of North America during the last ice age.
Smilodon is not only the best known but also the most recent in the fossil record, existing as recent as 10,000 years ago.
Whether Smilodon individuals lived in prides and hunted in packs or had a more solitary existence can only be surmised at and probably depended on their habitat.

They also ran ufter the old or ill mates, fact that was proved with findings of annimals with broken canines, broken jaws and important bones, wich would never survived by their own They had strong arms and strong cervical vetrebraes, this reveal they had an incredible force for cauching, killing and even carring their victims.

 SMILODON
It is estimated by some anthropologists that humans may have arrived in the Americas as early as 25,000 years ago, although most would estimate closer to 11,000 years.
Smilodon prides, it is not impossible to believe that social behavior would also become an adaptation of Smilodon in competition with the other social predators.
I believe that stripe patterns on Smilodon were perhaps not as bold as a tiger, since in most cases they appear to have lived in less densely forested areas than tigers.

 PREHISTORIC CATS AND PREHISTORIC CAT-LIKE CREATURES
Smilodon gracilis was the smallest of the Smilodons and the earliest species (about 2.5 million years ago); it was found in the eastern United States and weighed around 80 kilos.
Smilodon's anatomy shows them to be were specialised hunters of big game; they probably ambushed their prey - their robust build is not designed for chasing it down.
Smilodon was not built for the chase and this reduction in cover would have made it harder to ambush prey.
