177 kg, 282 cm total length, 184 cm headbody length, 91 cm shoulder height

These stats may belong to different tigresses (like weight comes from different tigress, length from different), but are the max in their regards

So,is lioness bigger than tigress?

Was this tiger empty stomach? His belly at the last scenes is looking somehow blowed...

The rest... seems like a healthy tiger.

I was confused by some things...


I calculated the averages and it says average from withers to tip of the extended paw = 114.9 cm .............. (i)
(removing one emaciated tiger of 125 kg and tiger no. 8 because both measurements are not given) 

Average from withers to wrist = 93.9 cm .............. (ii)
(removing one emaciated tiger of 125 kg and tiger no. 8 because both measurements are not given) 

Difference = 114.9 - 93.9 = 21 cm 
Meaning Paw length = 21 cm 

But there was some discussion on the Baidu forum that the measurement from the withers to the wrist is somehow not the actual shoulder height. 
They suggested that to find the total height, we need to add the thickness of the paw pad as well, and in that case the difference of 21 cm between both the methods (i and ii) reduces to 14.2 cm. I tried searching in the forum on how they got the difference of 14.2 cm but couldn't find it

However, using this case, average from withers to tip of the extended paw = 114.1 cm 
(Here, tiger no. 8 is included because only first measurement is required) 

And final average = 114.1 - 14.2 cm = 99.9 cm 

I wanted to know if this discussion has already taken place, that how they reached the difference of 14.2 cm. Also, I wanted to know if the correct method of measurement is from withers to paw pad or withers to wrist as mentioned in the various tables that posters have made.

The most accurate shoulder height measurements is from parallel to the top of the shoulder down to the heel pad in a straight line. There will definitely be a difference if you measure only to the wrist but how much of a difference I’m not sure of.

Yeah... in the paper it says that difference between tip of the paw and wrist is 21 cm
and according to the guys on Baidu, difference between tip of the paw and heel pad is 14.2 cm meaning that distance from wrist to heel pad is 6.8 cm
This should mean that in the tables for siberian tigers, 95 cm is less than the actual standing height

Hi! On the average adult males weigh about 230-240 kg and adult females 130-140kg. The largest tiger I have darted was about 285 kg. I don’t have the body measurements in my mind and we are currently under a lockdown due to Covid second wave. Can send you later. Regards

Edit - My question regarding average weight was particularly for tigers of Kanha (he has darted >10 tigers there), but I am not sure if the figure is for general bengal tiger population or just Kanha tigers

I tihink that include next tigers.
Konda and Banda have been captured and put on radio collar febury and october in 2007,their weights are both over 225kg,but we don't know their weights exactly because the scale up to 225kg.

The tiger kankatta who beat Munna weight only 197kg because bad physical condition.
Bheema was weght over 225kg in 2.5 years old.
And tiger patte wala has been put on a radio collar,and he killed by Munna in 2011,but we don't know his weight.
The tiger K1 has been put on a radio collar too,and he didn't separate with K2 when they are both subadult male in 2007(the left tiger was K1,the right tiger was K2).So K2 might weght by scientists when k1 put on radio,too.K2 beat K1 in 2008 and K1 killed by other adult tiger or death in poach .
I don't know the other male tigers have been put on collar,but Jhala's figures should content those male tigers.
