There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

The largest Panthera atrox skull on the record is 467.5mm and 304.5mm.
The largest Cromerian lion skull is 484.7mm and the width is unknown, but their skull is proportionally narrower compared to other big cats.
So we can assume that the largest skull of the prehistoric lions or lion-like cats should be around 12 inches.
Okay we assumed that the prehistoric lions or lion-like cats largest skull width is around 12 inches, so considering the fact that tigers have much wider skull than lions, then should we assume prehistoric tigers or tiger-like cats have much wider skull than prehistoric lions/lion-like cats?
