Yes, unrealistic, only to show how impressive is the artwork and a scale for amazement. Almost 900 lbs and 4 ft is realistic ,if not the largest. No idea about the largest skull? I believe they in general had smaller skulls than lions.

for your information the largest skull of smilodon populator measures 392 mm, which is smaller than the largest skulls of modern lions and no the proportions are not at all realistic, the head is too large, the neck and the body are too short and above all he has an excessive size, even Kodiak bears are not that size.

here is a more realistic comparison based on a real skeleton of smilodon populator. https://wildfact.com/forum/topic-smilodo...-a-species

I assume it is a cave lion (P atrox, P speleae,  P fossilis)? Reply
