The weight of that South China tiger canine is pretty impressive.

Do you think that canine should measure about 12 cm?

A same-sized male jaguar have a much smaller skull compared to those male Sumatran tigers. Amazing. But male tigers of other species, especially Siberian and Bengal, also have big skull in relation to their body, although some of them have a rather small skull compared to the rest of the body. Such as the picture below.

Btw, what are your opinions about this Lionzilla skull on the Ebay? It is an exceptional lion skull.

That canine isn't particularly robust, but it must belong to an old male, that's why it is quite heavy as it is almost entirely solid inside.

I need to focus on a few other things at the moment, Johnny. Sorry about that.

Here is the largest unstretched claws with its natural length:

Manchurian Amur: 8.5 cm
Northern Bengal: 7.6 cm
African lion: 6.9 cm


The Northern Bengal was alleged to belong to a 300+ kg specimen, while the other two were unknown.
