: See the previous discussion on this page - if you can find an in-universe source that refers to a smilodon being the real name for a sabre-toothed tiger, go ahead. But this is a repository of what we know about the Doctor Who Universe, not the real world. Feel free to make a note about this in a behind the scenes section, though. This would definitely be worthy of that. [[User:Danochy|Danochy]] [[User talk:Danochy|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:21, April 8, 2020 (UTC) | |||
