_______________________________________________

AFAIK not used in a sentence.

Cf.  https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Saber_bear 

(KGT 89f):  if [the meat] is fresh, the "cook" may {pID} it, which involves coating it with herbed granulated cartilage (not necessarily from the same animal) mixed with some kind of {tIr} (grain) and doing very little else... Meat prepared in this way is sometimes described as {wamwI' Ha'DIbaH} ("hunter's meat"), but the specific animal name is usually used instead of the word {Ha'DIbaH} ("meat"); for example, {wamwI' mIl'oD} ("hunter's sabre bear"). 

TREK NOTES:
  General Martok was kidnapped by the Dominion while he was hunting sabre bear on Kang's Summit in 2371 and replaced by a Changeling. (DS9 "In Purgatory's Shadow")

  Martok likened the Maquis' losing struggle against the Cardassians and the Dominion in 2373 to that of a trapped saber bear:  "The sabre bear is at its most vicious when cornered with no means of escape."  (DS9 "Blaze of Glory")
