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.

Comparison by Alessandro Di Gregorio

The maximum body mass for the giant jaguar from USA (Panthera onca augusta) was of about 227 kg, new sources quote much lesser figures. As far I know, the fossils of Panthera onca mesembrina are no larger than those from P. o. augusta. In this case, I think that a mass of 270 kg is greately exagerated. Even the large skull found in Talara, that some people believed that was from Panthera atrox, was not even close as large as a large skull of modern tiger/lion.

The image is good, the data need to be corroborated.

Hi Guate, check the thread Ancient jaguars I posted a new study that touches upon the weights of both prehistoric jaguars in more detail. For augusta the weight given was 190 kg, and mesembrina had a mean value of 231 kg, with a maximum of 243 kg.
