The regular Panthera spelaea specimens don't have thinner nares and vaulted skull, except for those from the Ural.

Since the modern Caspian tiger was known to disperse in the West/Central Asia, pretty close to the domain of the Eastern Europe, so do you think the Pleistocene tigers did have a chance to spread in the European part of Russia?

For the modern tiger, all northern variants don't have the prominent sagittal crest as its southern counterpart, the best example is Amur and Bengal. If the Ngandong tiger has the prominent sagittal crest, it is because they are the southern tiger like Bengal.
