What I was expecting.

Then I read your list and you didn't even include a Liger. The largest Cat in the world.

So I guess I will go with the Siberian Tiger just for the cool factor.

I had to look.
he largest piece of Caterpillar equipment is the Caterpillar 6090FS, which is a hydraulic excavator with an operating weight of 242,949 pounds and a powerful engine rating of 4,500 horsepower. This machine is designed for heavy-duty tasks in mining and construction

That's just a little guy.

This guy is swinging a swimming pool around on the end of a stick. Roughly 7 cubic yards of area in the bucket. But even this big cat is dwarfed by something like a front shovel used in mining applications.

Okay now… it’s not the size of the cat in the fight. It the size of the fight in the cat. Bigger isn’t always better… or is it?

The 6090 is WAY larger than what I see here in TX. The bucket on that is almost 70 cubic yards. That's more than a swimming pool, that's like swinging a small house around.
It's difficult to put something that large into a frame of reference.

This 6060 FS bucket is 44.5 cubic yards, so a little larger than half the size of that 6090 you posted. But the people in the bucket really help to show scale.

I mean he did ask about BIG cats.

Liger, It’s pretty much my favorite animal. It’s like a lion and a tiger mixed… bred for its skills in magic.

This guy has my vote even though he can be a biter…

That's why Jaguar is the the man, the thing even eats crocodiles
