Tigers (Bengals and Amurs) have the biggest paws, canines, forearm girths and upperarm girths of any bigcats.
When it comes to chest girths and neck girths its the Bengals which comes first among all bigcats followed by lions and amurs.

but when you see tiger and lion of same size, you´ll se that tiger has more muscular arms, while lion has more robust body.

When it comes to same weight, the lion will have a slight advantage over the tiger interms of chest girth. Its because of its shorter body.

Yes. I talked about same size (weight) animals, so Im glad you confirmed my opinion.

You welcome.

I guess I couldve stopped with the first sentence instead of writing a long reply in my previous post.

This is a better way to put it

"In general when it comes to same weight, the lion will have a slight advantage over the tiger interms of chest girth (exceptions do occur). Its because of its shorter body."

No problem :-) And I think you are right when it comes to optical illusiions. When you see a tiger and lion of same weight, the lion would look bigger...the reasons for this are mentioned by you. Reply
