Freak Felids - A Discussion of History's Largest Felines

[GuateGojira]

Just image what a massive fight between the huge Pleistocene buffaloes and the huge Ngandong tiger!
 
Pleistocene mammals were amazing, even primitive humanoids like the Megantrophus of Java or the Heilbelberg man from Africa, were also larger.
 
Remember that old comparison between the humerus of the modern 221 kg tiger and those of the Ngandong tiger? The fossils were slightly wider than those of the modern tiger, even scaled at the same size.
 
I first believed that those small, practically irrelevant differences were unimportant, but latter Tigerluver told me that those millimeters are in fact, important and could produce a higher body mass or muscles development.
 
So, we can suggest, more or less, that the Pleistocene cats were slightly more massive than the modern cats.
