Another size comparison that would be interesting to see: Amur tiger and Russian wild boar.

As title said the measurement of all Mega Fauna:Tiger,Lion,Leopard,Bear,Rhino,Elephant etc-Subspecies.
Why only Table's?? Easy to understand,Many experts already formed it,Simple and Straight.
Start with Polar Bear: Avg weight 329 Kg!

I don't quite agree with the averages of the Bengal Tiger in your first chart, but in the second chart with all the tiger subspecies I do agree.
Definitely do not agree with polar bear averages, though. Like all measures of weight, it depends on the region.

Does the weight of a male polar bear fluctuate with the seasons?
Also, what were the age-range of the bears weighed?

There is rarely significant (-100 to 100-pounds) weight fluctuation in male polar bears, due to them not hibernating and staying awake in the coldest months. However, exceptions of these polar bears fast in the summer: they go up to a month at a time without snacking in order to not waste energy (and fat reserves) trying to hunt small creatures, yet this results in them losing most (if not all) of their fat reserves.
For some reason, the chart of the polar bear isn't displaying on my phone (all the others are though). But from my experience, male polar bears aged 4-8 achieve normally achieve a weight of 660 to 800-pounds. They grow up quick. Males may achieve adult size greater than half a ton by the age of 12.

In both the tables Bengal is 40 kg heavier than second biggest cat Siberian tiger ... Do you know!! Still some sites claims Siberian tiger Average weight is 400 kg. Actually heaviest Siberian tiger ever found after 1980 was 206 kg.
Because of fanboys and propaganda artists some over estimate their favorite animals.Anyway,for me Bengal tiger has potential to reach 240 kg .... hope they will gain weight and Polar bears may reach 260 kg without fat.

The study you referrenced referred only to polar bears among the Southern Beaufort population, with a deviation of 80-kilograms (which is quite a bit of deviation). However this population (along with the Novaya Zemlya population) is rumored to be polar bear populations with the lower range of average weights, among the PBI database.

I cant imagine any bear above 500 kg because bears are timid and fatty.(except during hibernation)
RE: Modern Weights of Mega Fauna-Wild (Only Table's) - Pckts - 12-25-2016
Amurs have gotten over the 240kg mark, it's the modern stp report that hasn't seen a tiger reach that size.
Your statement about bears being "timid and fatty" is ridiculous btw.
RE: Modern Weights of Mega Fauna-Wild (Only Table's) - Vinay - 12-26-2016
^^ Source please (240 Kg Amur)...
May be you think Bears are heavy muscular,very agile and superb runners but i am not!

Your statement about bears is a bit underestimating, but anyway, these charts may represent a certain sub-population of wolves or jaguars, but I do know that the net average weight for grey wolves around the world is definitely not 48-kilograms, I'd say 33-kilograms worldwide. Jaguar average data may be right based on weights of numerous jaguar sub-populations.
RE: Modern Weights of Mega Fauna-Wild (Only Table's) - brotherbear - 12-26-2016
Size & Weight. Male polar bears weigh about 375-600 kilograms (825-1320 pounds) while occasional individuals may reach 800 kilograms (1760 lb). They sometimes exceed 250 centimeters (10 feet) in length, measured in a straight line from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail, although most male polar bears are a bit shorter. They are roughly twice the size and weight of adult females, which weigh 200 to 350 kilograms (440-750 lb) and achieve an adult body length of about 190-220 centimeters (up to about 7 ft). Females first breed at four to six years of age and most often give birth to two cubs in snow dens on land (some cubs are born in dens on the sea ice). Cubs stay with their mothers for two and a half years before weaning which means that unless cubs die prematurely, females do not breed more frequently than every three years. Both sexes live twenty to twenty-five years and sometimes to over 30 years. Their primary prey is ringed seals and, to a lesser degree, bearded seals.

Edit and add: You are posting on the 'Premier League' with such nonsense as - I cant imagine any bear above 500 kg because bears are timid and fatty.(except during hibernation).
Very juvenile and doesn't even make sense.
