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.

Based in the measurements, this will put the Mokhnevskaya Cave skull (ca 475.0 in GSL and 422.0 in CBL) as a contendor for the biggest felid skull at this time, which is less than 8 mm larger in GSL but 2.3 mm smaller in CBL than the biggest Panthera atrox skull (467.5 in GSL and 424.3 in CBL). In the image that you presented, these two skulls will look basically of the same size.


Here's the catch, the Mokhnevskaya Cave skull has a CBL (422 mm) that is less than the CBL of the 467.5 mm skull of P. atrox (CBL 424.3 mm). Same trend from the basal length (Mokhnevskaya Cave skull is 398 mm, P. atrox is 404.7 mm). The Mokhnevskaya Cave skull is missing some posterior portion, and the 475 mm GSL might be a slight overestimate.
