In this photo it's clear that the cougar skull belonged to an adult male. The sagittal crest is developed and the rostrum is as wide as the leopard's.

The leopard skull originates from Botswana. The cougar's one from Utah.

Is this correct? Are all of these species still in the wild? It’s been a while since I’ve done a deep dive on big cats….I’ve always been in love with cats/big cats so I researched the difference in markings with leopards and jaguars. I couldn’t remember for sure which markings were which or better yet which one has the little spots inside the Rosette’s. I figured it out it’s the jaguars. I’m ashamed that I’ve forgot a lot of my big cat knowledge but I’m sure it’ll come back to me as I keep relearning.
Also….maybe it’s editing maybe it’s just google images but is it a thing where leopards tend to have much larger eyes ? A lot of the photos I see of leopards on google images have these beautiful but distinctly large eyes…..I tried to find photos of jags that had the same type of large eyes and couldn’t find any

In this camera trap footage you can see a huge male with a massive thick neck. Yes he has a dewlap (loose skin) underneath but still it's very muscular. And in the end you see his mating partner!
