Freak Felids - A Discussion of History's Largest Felines

[tigerluver]

I subconsciously used @Fieryeel's earlier canine height of 13.5 cm, so that's why I got that number. Looking at the photo, from point to point, the canine does look to be 13.5 cm, but regardless, the differences are insignificant.

For my final verdict, I feel these are both tiger teeth. I've browsed through seal skulls and they just don't match. The size variation is normal, especially considering the fact that it seems, the minimums and maximums within a species were more different back then than we find today (Gruwier et al. 2015 found this in a few deer species, for example). I believe the mortality rate for juveniles is quite high as well, so if you think about it, there should also be a high chance of finding a good amount of sub-adult specimens as fossils. Reply
