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.

It does look pretty worn, but I guess it should be a lower canine tooth of tiger.

Thank you Grizzly. I thought it also could be that. One side resembles more of a tiger canine, but the other side with more damage to the posterior confused me.

If the root is broad, then it is tiger.

The narrow root is the lion.

Thanks Grizzly. For the most part then, unless it's a deformity, the narrow root as in this photo would suggest a lion rather than a tiger, correct?

Yep, the narrow root is the indication of a lion.
