The details of the 419 mm long lion skull that was briefly described in Mammals of the Soviet Union, Vol II, Part 2 by Heptner and Sludskii from 1962 Rowland Ward's Records of Big Game 11th Edition by Gerald A. Best including the method of measurement. If the top 3 lion skulls are place on top of a table, the measurements will be 17 inches in greatest total length including the mandible. I thought the top 3 lion skull records belong solely to the Transvaal or Kruger lions but some specimens from the East Africa can also actually attain huge skulls.
