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.

This one looks lion, but I could be wrong though.

Claw is a tiger, Canines is not clear, it may be a lion.

The largest tiger claw is 10 cm over curve, but only 7 cm in the straight length.

So these lion claws still have the normal size.

Let's assume the volume of the canine as length x lateral x anterior.

The largest tiger canine as [168 x 51 x (51 * 0.7)] / [118 x 33 x (33 * 0.7)] x 86.49 = 294 grams.

So the largest tiger canine could probably weigh as much as 300 grams.

I previously used this comparison formula with other tiger canines, and it gave me a similar result.

The third one looks like a replica made of resin.

This could also be a high quality resin product, but I am not sure.
