With the advent of the gigantelopes, the sabre tooth pattern in predatory mammals has reappeared, but this time among the predator rats. The bardelot, unlike other members of the group, exhibits sexual dimorphism in that only the female is equipped with sabre teeth (as well as a pouch for them, similar to Thylacosmilus, but not entirely) and hunts the woolly gigantelopes. The male, having none, resembles more the polar bears that once inhabited this latitude.
