these are tigers, large ones, compare them to the "goliath" see the eerie resemblence between juvies and adults?
here are some of the adult goliath from d. dann fishing, notice most photos of goliaths are from a few years, maybe 10 years ago or more? and non of recent years, maybe hard to access to the area, or maybe they're less common than we think? but notice how these resemble some of the juvie what i call...well, i'll let you decide 
someone good at photoshop, please put some pictures side by side on one palate and maybe we can do a poll? which juvies resemble which adults!!! the trust, do it for me, or neo

another one, someone can edit out the watermark, notice this one is smaller, still lacks the stripes and has a square looking jaw and head?
jaw and head look just like this one. These are sold as H. vittatus, not H. goliath. I agree about the stripes, but the head is identical.
head isn't. If u look closely at an adult vittatus and goliath. The goliath has a longer, "reptilian" like head and jaw. The vittatus head is more rounded and shorter.
