According to Martial Arts pg. 115, the Born Biter trait makes a character count as a larger size modifier for the purposes of biting only. It lists possible modifiers of +1 to +3 and gives an example of a reptile man that would have +3. I'm interested in seeing how the GURPS community would classify:
1) large cats (lions, tigers, jaguars)
2) bears (black, brown, polar)
3) canines (gray wolf, german shepherd, great dane, etc).

I'm inclined to think that cats would either lack Born Biter altogether or only qualify for level 1. Bears will probably be either level 1 or 2. Canines will probably be level 2 or 3 (ignoring the less adapted breeds like the pug).
