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.

I would have to assume when measurements of claws are given, they probably measure the duclaw. Isn't the duclaw the largest and most leathal claw on a big cat?

I would have to agree that claw data is going to be harder to come by, especually wild specimens.

Nice to see you to Grizzlyclaws, glad you guys made this site, less drama more facts!

The king of tigers from what I've seen from recent data would be Bengal, now in the past I am unsure, I enjoy Siberians and wish there where more info on them and a bigger population. It is hard to choose who has title king, they are both magnificent animals.
