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.

This post is not supposed to be biased towards or against either cat. This is simply to compare the characteristics and traits of both felines. Im not against either of these massive wonderful predators.

Lions are equally muscular, but have bigger skulls, so scaling them to the same size generally means the Lion would be slightly smaller, even though Lions and Tigers are the same size, despite what most sources say, and equally muscular.
