Estimates suggest that a Smilodon had a bite force of around 1,000 psi (pounds per square inch). This powerful bite force helped them efficiently subdue their prey, which often included large herbivores such as bison and camels during the Pleistocene era.

What is the psi of an orca bite?

The Orca's bite force has not been measured because it's virtually impossible to measure the bite force of an aroused bull Orca under controlled conditions.

Measuring bite force in psi would require defining what surface you were measuring on - the tip of the tooth? across the entire jaw?
