Saber-tooth moose lion

Saber-tooth Moose-lions appear in "Bitter Work", when Sokka planned on catching one and eating it only to get caught in a ground fissure. The baby cub proceeds to play with Sokka, who attempted to converse with it, later naming it Foo Foo Cuddlypoofs. When Aang later goes to save Sokka and picks up the cub, the mother senses Aang as a threat and attacks him. Aang stands his ground fighting the cub's mother. After fighting, the mother leaves and Toph praises Aang for standing his ground like a real Earthbender.

Anatomy
Saber-tooth Moose-Lions stand at least ten feet tall, with brown fur, long muzzles and palm-shaped antlers on their heads. Its body and tail are feline in appearance, and its two enlarged upper fangs extend past its lower jaw. It also has large clawed paws. Cubs are very small (no larger than a small dog) and are difficult to classify until their horns and fangs grow in. They are also very adorable, intelligent and friendly. They vaguely resemble a light brown hippo with a mid-short bushy tail and big ears. Without developed giant teeth and horns, they seem harmless.

Connection
The Saber-tooth Moose-Lion is a clear cut mix of a moose, a lion and the prehistoric saber-toothed cat, or Smilodon. The moose is the largest member of the deer family. Although the Smilodon is sometimes called a saber-toothed cat, the scientific community still debates on whether or not it can be classified as part of the cat family.

Behavior
The Saber-tooth Moose-lion is native to the forests of the Southern Earth Kingdom. These animals are extremely good fighters because their long teeth, long horns and ferocious attitude make them a formidable opponent. Although they appear intimidating, for the most part Saber-tooth Moose-Lions are friendly animals, that is, unless one stands in between a mother and her cub. In these cases, the creature appears to be very violent.
