Jhala et al. (2019). I checked again the measurements of these Indian lions and I go this: ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author Certainly these lions were measured along the curves, and probably presing the tape as a lion of 204 cm in head body can't weight only 160 kg, it will look like a cheetah, so probably its real length was about 190-194 cm and even then is still lanky. Please take in count that the lions captured were healty adults. Now, my concern is with lioness F3 as her length is weird, I mean, her head-body is of 209 cm, bigger than any male lion in the region! I am 100% sure that there is an error there and I guess that probably the real total length is of 239 cm, which will produce a head-body of 159 cm, more in the line with the other females. I will try to contact the authors, but just in case, @Rishi, can you try to contact Dr Jhala about this? I think that he will be more willing to answer to you as you allready contacted him previously. Let's see if we can clarify this point.

RE: Asiatic Lion - Data, Pictures & Videos - lionjaguar - 10-04-2019 Asiatic lions are smaller than African lions. What about lions lived in other Asia? Lions in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Israel, and other Asian countries. As far as I know, Iraq has swamp region name, Mesopotamian Marshes map. It is similar to Okavango delta, Los Llanos, Sudd, and Pantanal. Or what about European lions lived in Greece or southern Balkan until Roman killed them all.

Well, I've read lions of Afghanistan & Balochistan being described by British officers as smaller, than the ones in Indo-Gangetic plains. I think they were about Gir lions in size & belonged to adjoining populations... The lions living up northeast may have become larger after coming in contact with tigers. Any lion's progeny weighing below 180kg would be at survival disadvantage against them & eventually die out with time. Also, those parts had much larger prey in higher numbers before being almost completely replaced by cultivated croplands in last 2 centuries. But back then; imagine a grassland-forest mosaic of various height & density, like those in remaining Terai, sightly drier at the south though. ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author

We have accounts of large Asiatic lions in the past, even outside their current range in the Indian State of Gujarat: - Circa 1620, Mughal Emperor Jehangir reportedly speared a lion in western India measuring 10 feet 3 inches (about 3.1 m) in length, and weighed about 306 kg (674.6 lbs): https://books.google.com/books?id=szBm5kPeC-cC&pg=PA&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=jehangir&f=false - "Unusually large" Persian lion with melanistic patches in Khuzestan, 1841: https://archive.org/stream/journalofbombayn27192022bomb#page/34/mode/2up/search/unusually+large *This image is copyright of its original author *This image is copyright of its original author - "Large, stocky, light tawny" lion eating a goat near Quetta, present-day Pakistan (then still part of India), alleged by a British Admiral travelling by train with 2 accomplices in 1935: https://books.google.com/books?id=4eTaAAAAMAAJ&q=very+stocky&redir_esc=y&hl=en, http://carnivoractionplans1.free.fr/wildcats.pdf#page=62 There are also some interesting descriptions of both African and Eurasian lions from these encyclopædias from the 19th century: https://books.google.a/books?id=TX7BmPgLuw8C&pg=PA32&lpg#v=onepage&q&f=false, https://books.google.com/books?id=GWslAAAAMAAJ&q=Asiatic+lion#v=snippet&q=Asiatic%20lion&f=false [attachment=3117] [attachment=3118] [attachment=3119] RE: Asiatic Lion - Data, Pictures & Videos - Rishi - 10-06-2019 ![]() *This image is copyright of its original author
