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.

Here's my best guess...
I have an 8.5'' or 21.59cm long hand from the base of my palm to tip of my middle finger.
I'm 6'5'' so I'm probably much taller than this kid holding the skull, lets just guess that he's 5'10'' with a hand size of around 7.4'' or 18.79cm

I'd guess the Zygomatic arch to be around 1-1.5'' wider than his hand, so that puts it around 8.4''-8.9''
That is a very wide Skull and belongs to an animal over 100kg for sure.
Any skull over 8'' wide in Almeidas book belonged to a Jaguar over 100kg.

Length is much harder to determine but generally when a Skull is at least 8'' wide the skull length is at least 11 6/16" long.
