Do you have any photos from Masai Mara?
...or perhaps your brother could have some...ask him...

200 kg lion = very impressive animal.

Its not easy to estimate the size of an animal via photo...its not even easy to estimate the weight of an animal standing in front of you. Anyway I think that 200 kg empty is a reasonable estimate - big lions. Alleged 230-250 kg empty would mean that they are Waghdohs among lions. Not impossible but improable.
btw imagine 2 big cat enthusiasts standing in front of a cage with male lion and arguing about his weight. "This lion is 220 kg!" - "No no...this lion is 195 kg!" ...ridiculous...

RE: Lion king Notch and his famous 5 sons - Pckts - 05-03-2015
Are you sure about their age, ceasar definitely looks as old as Grimace, and lions grow manes differently.
Just curious...
