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.

Body size of the Amur tiger - version 2015:

Here are my new tables about the size of the Amur tiger, actualized at 2015, with all the records that I could found at this date.

This new version have some corrections from previous ones, besides it includes the table of the historic specimens, in order to show the variation among the subspecies in time. In the case of the modern males, I used the average data from Kerley et al. (2005) in some measurements, because it had a larger sample, and by extension, more representative. With modern tigresses, despite the equal sample size and data, my average values were not the same than those of Dr Kerley, so I used mine, as are based in the same data published by her in 2005.

Erase the old versions that you already have and save this new one, together with the attached document (also available in Scribd).
