There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Lions in South-Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia

I would be interested in the effect of disease on body mass and, regarding the table you posted, which animal was affected. My guesstimate for now would be roundabout 30 lbs., as one has to assume there wouldn't be much to choose between northern and southern Kruger lions. 

I would also be interested in adjusted or not, as we know the difference between gorged and empty males in Cooch Behar was no less than 60 lbs.

The last question would be about length (in what way were they measured) and the cause of the disease. See what you can find and good luck. You are, by the way, right regarding the lack of info in articles. I see it all too often and the result is questions each and every time.
