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.
From the data that I have, South African lions are the largest of the lions. They surpass (bit a little bit) they brothers of the south west and definitely are larger than the East African lions.
The heaviest white lion in South Africa that I know in these days is a male of 250 kg, very stocky but not taller than 100 cm at the shoulder. He looks like a big tiger, but with a mane.
I forgot his name right not, but I am going to search a few pictures from him.
