The siberians are on the far ends. He specifically says that he had to keep Cambodge (the largest siberian and the furthest to the end, it is a misprint saying that it is Brahma at the end), from killing prince. He would jump at prince every time he would walk past and get lashes for his troubles until he finally gave in a realized he must work with him. Both siberians other than ceasar also killed multiple trainers later in their careers.
Those are males witht he siberians as well, all except one and as you can see, they seem to be 2/3 the size of the siberians. But we still don't know what type of "bengals" they were.

Watched the video. Personally I wouldn´t call the male "freaking" tall. Definitely tall, but not "freaking" tall. Furthermore we don´t know how big or small the person is, so our impression of a tall specimen might be wrong. Look at the white male lion behind the male siberian. He should be more or less as tall as the male siberian. As i observed in several videos, white male lions compared to regular lions, in some cases, SEEM to be exceptionally tall. So the male siberian COULD be indeed a tall specimen. But again you really need to proportion an image with a reference point, for example data about the persons measurements to come to a realistic conclusion.

White lions are no taller or shorter than other lions.
The tiger on the far end is definitely taller than the white lion. That is for sure. 
at 2:48 you can see the height difference.

This is a short specimen with a huge head. Is this a Bengal or a Siberian tiger?

Murzik from Sikhote Alin has a pretty large head on him too, his entire family is being tracked by the WCS.

Bengal, there is another pic of him taking a swipe at Court.
Here are the images of the siberians and bengals together

Brahma is the only female pictured and she is on the right next to the two large siberians and another siberian on the far left is Caesar. Cambodge is the largest of the 3 siberians and the one who was trying to fight with Prince for quite some time.
Hi photographed most of the chapter and will post it when it uploads.
