These newspaper articles are always tricky, sometimes they can be spot on and sometimes not. But if true, then in this circus they have some pretty big individuals.

Here is another article concerning same circus and a lion which is said to be approximately 300 kg.

Translated quote: I"f something goes wrong, then the lion and I will fly down so that I’m unlikely to stay alive. A lion weighs about 300 kilograms, and can crush. In addition, any cat, if it loses its balance, tries to cling to anything around with its claws. For the body of the trainer as well. If the trainer lost control and fell to the ground with the predator, then he will not be able to do anything for his own defense.
