RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Shadow - 04-06-2020 (04-06-2020, 02:18 PM)Hello Wrote: @Shadow ,this is Craig Kennion and he also said Howletts once had purebred Bengals.They were allowed to hybridise with Malayan I´m not seeking photos about him :) I try to find out if weights, which he has told/claimed, can be verified by some zoo etc. Studbooks etc. don´t give that information even though otherwise valuable for zoos. So far I haven´t been able to get any verifications. I don´t see those figures impossible. I just am interested to find out figures, which zoos confirm as reliable weighed. I find it a little bit odd, that some people would weigh tigers here and there in different zoos so, that no-one in those zoos can´t confirm anything today, it´s not that long time after all. Until some zoo confirms some of his claims, I personally don´t take those for granted. And this is nothing personal, but he just isn´t someone well known biologist like Karanth, Miquelle etc. Good thing is, that he gives names and zoos, so what he says can be checked within some time period.

When I say 1yo I mean not more than 12 months, because he was born 10th March 2011 and the article is from 27 march 2012. His father was Skip. I saw him in 2013, he was 17yo then and absolutely dwarfed 196 kg male in next enclosure.

RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Hello - 04-10-2020 @Amnon242 here is a video of Skip RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Amnon242 - 04-10-2020 (04-10-2020, 10:34 AM)Hello Wrote: @Amnon242 here is a video of Skip This is not Skip, this male is called Jupiter (born 2007). BTW It seems that I posted a photo of Jupiter (mistaken by his robustness) RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Amnon242 - 04-12-2020 5yo amur male called Amur. 250 kg. I have never seen him, but breeders told me that he was around 250 kg. And here you have written source for it. https://www.blesk.cz/clanek/system-vyhledavani/73530/rvouci-amur-se-stehoval.html RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Amnon242 - 04-12-2020 thats him with 12yo female RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Amnon242 - 04-12-2020 and this should be Marecek. One of the biggest tigers from Tiger Oasis. Weight unknown. But according to this article https://www.czsk.net/dotyky/8_2003/tigre.html 1. amur males are (on average) 220 - 230 kg. 2. Tigers from Tiger Oasis are substantially larger. RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Amnon242 - 04-12-2020 Marecek has interesting body construction. Some amurs are bear-like creatures, while others have strong legs but lean body (combination of power and agility). Somewhat similar to cougars (or perhaps cheetahs? )...but rather unique. No other felid has this kind of body. Here is another example, subadult male. RE: Captive Lion and Tiger weights - Amnon242 - 04-12-2020 Yet another example. Subadult amur.
