How reliable are these weights? Have they been properly weighed or could that just be a bit of keepers' estimates? I mean I've never heard of a a lioness that weighs 200+ kg, let alone a lioness that looks that fit .

Those females could be spayed as to avoid inbreeding as they live with their father in the same enclosure. Spaying could increase fat gain. However, She didn't looked overweight for her weight.

The biggest I'd estimate is 550-580 lbs. The 261 kg tiger looks like 420 lbs at best. There are no pure bengals other than from India and Nepal. 553 lb (weighed) amur for comparison.
