Captive Lion and Tiger weights

[Shadow]

Here one interesting video concerning Zambar, son of Gamin. At approximately 0:15 zookeeper says, that he is "just under 250 kg´s". I´ve seen somewhere mentioned, that Zambar was 236 kg (I´m not 100% sure about exact number, but it was something in between 230-240 kg and I´m 70% sure, that 236).

I haven´t got yet reply from Blackpool zoo, but I find this interesting. First, if I remember right and he has been weighed 236 kg, then this zookeeper could use expression "just under 250 kg´s" based on that weight. And a good example how easily an animal can gain weight in discussions just like that. Then again, maybe he has been weighed to be more, like 245-249 kg before this was recorded, I don´t know. That´s why I find it good to ask from zoos to get some clear answers.
