^Great post Dolan. Based on that research, it appears M. ferox is much closer to the size of the grey wolf than previously thought. The wolf still looks a bit taller, not sure if that would translate into a heavier body or a fighting advantage. Given the mustelid's very powerful bite and possible grappling advantages, this might really be a close contest.

I go for the big bad wolf! The size gap is not enormously decisive and the wolf's got good speed and a bite. Plus, a good timed howl can make its opponent dizzy.

I made another size chart, I´m not totally convinced about AMNH 12880 being 27% larger than F:AM 25430 as suggested by the mastoid breath, dental dimensions suggest only a ~16% difference and the known limb bone material suggest individuals up to the same range, ~14% larger than F:AM 25430.

Really close, but leaning to Grey Wolf.
