There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Yeah, but they where young and quite skinny even Caesar which is very bulky normally and he has always been, they where clearly smaller than one Krüger lion, which must have been a real upper limit sized lion. but they where around the normal Krüger lions. Notch himself at that time was the biggest of them, but the way Caesar out grown his father is what really makes you thinking. and I disagree with what the Facebook fan page says about Caesar being lower and shorter than Notch 2 and Grimace, he is bigger in any perspective: longer, taller and bulkier. It probably because he is so bulky the others seems taller and longer, makes sense since it's like with lions and tigers lions seems clearly taller and sometimes longer, because they are less bulky, but they actually aren't, that's the same with Caesar and the other lions as well.
I started reading up on the Notch boys again a while ago, and I got incredibly interested in them, I like the looks of East African lions. And Caesar is my personal favorite just fell in love with that awesome looking lion! And I saw many pictures from present till now and Caesar really looked big, another thing which can have played a factor when I saw them was that I was very focused on taking pictures and did not pay much attention to the size difference between the individuals, but I'm going down in September to see them again! :-)

Here you can see him with Ron he is quite close in size with Notch 2 and Grimace, and he looks small compared to Caesar. Not all photographers etc, looks so closely and pays so much attention when it comes to size as we here on this forum I think. So when people pays very good attention to stuff like this they can see big differences that others don' see.
