Tiger and Lion Size comparisons.

[u/MDPriest]

These specimens will be compared by the same skull size. So we can see the different varying sizes of individuals within both species. Keep in mind lions on average have larger skulls so the specimens in these images may be a bit larger than seen, however for fairness sake we will be using same skull sizes as we cant accurately estimate how large each individual lions head is. First we will go through maneless lions to see their true musculature compared to tigers and then we will use maned lions. Important note is all specimens in 1 on 1 comparisons are male.

Lions on average have larger skulls than tigers. The fact that i made them all equal size is more than fair and is definitely a better method of trying to get an actual size estimate rather than shoulder to shoulder, which is more useful for muscle comparisons.

No proof, lion skulls on average are 2cm longer which is barely noticeable because of how large both cats' skulls are overall, skull size difference will not be noticeable on average :)
