As for the canine teeth: Amur: 16.8 cm Bengal: 15.8 cm Lion: 13.7 cm The largest Amur tiger canine tooth is the famous one that is 2 inches wide, and I think many of you have already seen it. As for the other two, I don't have the pic. The 15.8 cm Bengal canine was alleged to belong to the same owner as the 7.6 cm Bengal claw, and the 13.7 cm lion canine was alleged to belong to a freak specimen.

Hello everybody
I have a little question regarding a Lion teeth Pendent. I bought a Pendent with a Lion teeth from a good friend. There I saw a little dark line. (please check attached image.)  *This image is copyright of its original author Now my question: Maybe this lion has died with the old (I have read lion can live about 20 years) and these teeth will get older and its going to died as well. Is it so? If yes, then the teeth will produce bacteria, and may I NOT wear them? Or can I wear it for future? Or this dard line is just a natural and I may have to clean them? Does anyone have an idea? Many thanks for your help. cheers Deesh 
I need to see the whole canine, and yours only got the crown part which is hard to distinguish.
For now, I can only say it is likely the crown part of a big cat canine, but the root part is significant to distinguish between lion and tiger. As for the preservation of the tooth, I think you need to consult to those taxidermy forums.
