Leopards does also have very long fangs while lions and jaguars have shorter. Wonder why really? Have made my own theories over the years, but not sure. 

lions and tigers both animals are hunting large prey (zebra, sambar, wildebeest and bovine species), but still the tiger has such long fangs, feel like amur tigers have the longest. Big question! Can be because the lions have a longer skull, and looks like the lions bite eachother more often in conflicts between other lions, and also in hunting! 

while leopards usually kills prey smaller than themselves, jaguars have a very special way of killing that might be the reason behind ther shorter fangs
