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.

length of skull 34 cm
wide of skull 23 cm
length of upper fangs 5,5 cm it is missing the other upper canine
length of lower fangs 4 - 4,1 cm

Skull came from Caricuao Zoo in Caracas, Venezuela


It does look like an undersized male, and the canine teeth are about the size of the Bone Clones specimen.

@GrizzlyClaws

You are right, the person that let me measure the skull did not know anything about the size of the Lion, only thing she knows is that it was a male.

Maybe it belonged to the lions from Central/West Africa, since the lions from there are generally compared to those from the Southeast Africa.
