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.

It's estimated size according to the peer reviewed paper (Sherani, 2019) was 480±60 kg so it was at least 420kg but it could have been much heavier as well.
So it rivals and even most likely surpasses the Smilodon Populator but among all animals in this list, it's the Smilodon Populator (most likely) or the Ngandong Tiger
The giant Bornean tiger belonged to the southern clade of the mainland Pleistocene tiger.
Their northern counterparts were also super massive, but we just don't know the exact size of these fossils.
