Resumen:

The muscles on the right and left side of the head of three specimens ?two adult males and one youngfemale? were dissected and photographed. This study increases our knowledge on the mandibular soft tissue and addsimportant anatomical information to the poorly known and documented musculature of this felid, the largest of thesubfamily Felinae.
