So would you agree if I estimate the average for males from 243 to 268 kg and max from 317 to 384 kg?

That is fair.

@epaiva, I recall you had a nice table of your skull collection measurements and had P. atrox over 460 mm. Do you have a photo of the skull measured with a ruler for scale? It would be great for some comparisons. Thank you!

epaiva · 07-15-2021, 09:10 AM

Length of skull 46,7 cm, wide of skull 30,4 cm, length of upper fangs 74,8 and 74,3 mm, length of lower fangs 53,9 mm and 55,1 mm

These are very interesting. Could you please link to the specific page on this website?

@tigerluver It isn't a website, as far I know. Ray Urbaniak and I are both in the "Pleistocene Megafauna" Facebook group where he shared some of these petroglyphs. He has a pdf of them, though I think I posted the most promising ones.

I was actually able to find the website. It’s in this magazine/journal.

That's an exaggerative value.
