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.
The left is a male Amur and the right a female Amur. This is from a paper about skull dimorphism between sexes in tigers. Check the attachment for the paper and see p. 398 for the run through. I'm trying to determine the gender of skull's owner.
The poorly developed saggital crest and cristae point to a female. The postorbital constriction and interorbital breadth relationship point to a male. The narrow muzzle points to a female. The robust zygomatic arches, although narrow in breadth, are contradictory. With one skull, I can't say what traits are species specific and what are gender specific. Perhaps a adolescent male?
