Dana, did you take all of Nixon's food?

Oh, wait. Let me guess.

A dino experiment?

No.

Really?

I'm not only interested in dinosaurs, Mom.

What else are you interested in?

I'm also interested in other prehistoric creatures.

Of course, but, uh...

that's not a prehistoric creature.

No, but it's related to one.

A really big one, the Smilodon.

Smilodon.

Sounds like a dinosaur.

Why would you think that?

'Cause it kind of sounds like that other one

you're always talking about, the, uh...

Troodon.

You mean this one?

[Mom] Yeah.

[Dana] Good memory, Mom.

But you're completely wrong.

Smilodon.

Also known as "sabertooth cat".

Also known as seriously awesome.

Its front teeth were as long as that whole cat.

Wouldn't want to run into that.

[roars]

Really? Because I think we're about to.

Mom, I don't want you to freak out,

but there's a Smilodon in our shed.

Whoa.

[Dana] I know.

It's a lot to take in.

And, uh, you were trying to lead it

into the house?

Just so I could study it better.

I've never seen a Smilodon before.

And what if this cat had followed your food trail

inside instead?

I guess we would have to adopt it

and love it forever.

Dana, you can't bring every wild animal

into the house.

Because...

[Mom] Because they're wild

for a reason.

They're not like Nixon.

They don't know how to live with people.

Promise me you won't lure animals into the house.

I promise.

Good. Okay.

I'm doing Dino Experiment 608:

"How did dinosaurs survive the winter?"

Well, how does this fellow

help you solve that?

It's a decoy.

Decoys are like fake animals scientists use

to help them attract the real thing.

And then what?

We see what they do.

If a dinosaur comes and eats the ribcage hotdogs like this,

"Om-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom,"

I'll know it survived the winter by scavenging.

[Ms. Currie] Oh.

Well, I should get going home.

But wait, I haven't explained

what "scavenging" means.

Okay.

Scavenging is when an animal

eats something that it didn't have to hunt.

You're kind of a scavenger because

you didn't have to kill these groceries.

Well, that's not something

you hear every day.

I have an idea!

Why don't you wait with me

to see which dinos show up?

Oh, Dana, I'm sorry. I can't.
