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.

Not yet, sorry, but this comparative image (not my best, sorry ) can give you an idea of a correct comparison between these species:
*This image is copyright of its original author
In the image you can see the maximum sized Smilodon populator (220 X 129 cm) against the maximum sized Bengal tiger (220 X 114 cm). In body mass, the tiger may be about 290 kg "emtpy" (based in the record of Smythies in Nepal, adjuted for stomach content) while S. populator certainly reach the 400 kg. A comparison on the skull department (not showed here), the Smilodon is of 392 mm while the tiger is of 383 mm.
