4,5 yo male, 250+ kg (at 3th birthday 250 kg weighted). Pure muscle.
RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris... A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 07-19-2017
17 yo amur male. Good condition. Still around 190 - 200 kg (my estimate) which is good for such an old animal. There is another amur male, 6 yo and he is much much bigger, the owner estimates him to be 270 kg at least...(I agree with the estimate). Sorry for the bars...
RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris... A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 07-19-2017
8yo kruger. The owner and I concluded that this is the biggest lion we have ever seen. We estimae him to be around 250 kg. There are also east african lions who are much smaller...I estimate them to be 170 kg.
RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris... A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 07-19-2017
5 cubs...which is probably world record for white krugers
RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris... A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 07-19-2017
the lioness is also huge...id say good 150 kg if not more...
RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris... A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 07-19-2017
East african lions. Father, mother, son
BTW I talked with the owner of this private zoo (20+ years of experience with around 50 lions and 20 tigers). He is huge lion lover and he dislikes tigers (he is going to cancel his amur tiger program...he is also going to keep his white tigers beacuse they are attractive and he needs visitors). He says that according to his opinion (captive) amur tigers are the biggest, while bengal and south african lions are about the same size (he was in India and especially in Africa many times). I asked him who would win in a fight and he said, that majority of people in the know prefer one one them but according to him it depends strictly on the individual. His felids are in good condition and have long life (one lion was 24 yo when he died) and this zoo is extremely successfull in breeding. Its beacuse quiet environment (felids have a lot of privacy) and proper food (usually veal). In many zoos felids have inapropriate diet (chicken, rabbits...) and therefore have tendencies to obesity.

Same male as above. When I saw him I remembred how V. Mazak wrote that massive front part of the body is typical for tigers. I dont know if you can see it in this photo...
