Yeah, lion looks pretty bulky man. Have you seen the big lionesses, they can be as big as the male cats sometimes not as heavy though. Did you see Bakari the lion, hes as long as the lioness an short in height, but he weighs 570lbs. I mean um just sayin, thats the difference. There can be both big tigresss an lionesss.

FYI: you are just wasting your time with your comments, because I absolutely dont take you seriously. You are certainly Haymaker (same scheme of "thinking") and you are not a credible partner for discussion. This is my last comment to you.

Nice pictures and many thanks.
I'm interested in 'Tiger Oasis'. You told me the director doesn't trust anyone, but my advice is to try again. Tell him there's no agenda, show him the forum and inform him about our goals.
I talked to many people involved in big cats in some way (trainers, directors of facilities, hunters, keepers, researchers, managers and writers). The well-trained topped the table for distrust, but some big cat trainers almost compared. I understand, as things have not been going their way. When I went over for a talk, I always took info interesting for cat people. Most, however, never read anything. They judge people in a different way. When they agree, ask them if they would appreciate an interview. It's the best way to get to info and for them it's the best way to talk about what they do. Tell them you will show them the results.
If you don't succeed, contact someone with a reputation in that department. I know it's not easy. Not a few trainers were sent away when they first applied for a job. They tried again and again, because they liked animals. Motivation counts.

People from ZOOs hate them.

Anyway: what would you like to know?
