92 kg Nusa female
( sister of Pitágoras male and daughter of Teorema female, the beast )
Nusa definitely took after her mother Teorema's great genes.

This is why you can rely on diehard fans' words about size or stature.

And I promise you that Gaurav is the furthest thing from a fanatic as well as having immense experience with big cats.

CM seems slightly larger in frame but Matka is bulkier.

Ask anyone who’s seen them both, Matka wasn’t a large Tiger while CM was a very large one.

Chota Munna was just like his father. Munna himself was a very average sized male. That is what made his territorial reign even more impressive. Matka though is one of the shortest males I have seen. Chota Munna was definitely bigger, but nothing out there. Was not surprised when he went missing (if it wasn’t poaching related) because Kanha probably has 20 males who are bigger than him.

Munna definitely wasn’t a small cat, he had a decent frame size and a very dense muscle composition. The guides who’d seen him said he was a big boy and had a similar frame to Bheema but more robust, so take it for what it is. CM is was also said to be a big boy, certainly not outmatched by 20 other Tigers in Kanha. Just look at the videos and images of him in his prime, he was huge.
I wish people didn’t have a grudge against certain Kanha “fanatics” because it causes some to downgrade these cats. There is a reason so many people say Kanha Tigers are larger than other Tigers. An “average” Kanha male is going to be as large as an exceptional Tiger from other reserves.

Here is an Alaskan Brown Bear roaming by tourists.
You can see the humans close to the Bear at 0:39 and 1:04 of this video.

not a comparison next to a human but this picture deserves to be seen by people. This is the Black dam male lion the lion in my previous post just 2 feet from a safari jeep. With the recent lion census,by multiple sources he is said to have the 3rd largest skull in ALL OF AFRICA. Pretty much ever. Just wanted to share this absolute behemoth
