Good one Ernesto!

Tim, I cant vouch for the auther. Ive never met him.

But a 25% variable on your tooth woud take it to over 5 inches. It just means your tiger tooth isnt the biggest of tigers.

After all he says the tooth on a necklace is 5 inches, he didnt say the length exposed above the gum line!

Also according to. Australia zoo.com

"The canine teeth of a full grown tiger can reach five inches (including the root). Although Singha’s teeth are only small at this stage, they will become one of the world's greatest tools for killing. "

link.

But I have a headless Tiger skin that ways over 30lb, i think its teeth would have been going on 5+inches easily {including root.}. Its enourmous.

Gurkhas can be 5tf 2in Many people are 6ft6in. There teeth size will vary to.
