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.
Looks like I remembered wrong on the upper canine ratios (edited last post for this reason). Tigers are 0.4778 in alveoli AP width/crown height while lions are 0.4673. Maybe the under gum region of tigers is longer, but I don't know of any study that went that in depth.
I haven't found anything on lower canines either. But from my own exploration cave lion teeth are wide and robust compared to the Ngandong teeth.
