A tiger weighing 250 kilos with maximum stomach content is most likely a male that weighs 220-230 kilos empty depending on when he has eaten.

That percentage is the maximum an individual eats and that figure is only correctly assumed as the tiger has just finished eating (and most likely drinking). The further you go away from this moment, the stomach content is expelled pretty rapidly in large cats as their digestive system is very short which therefore reduces stomach content.

i quote again "indian express said ustaad as a 250kg approx male tiger " , not said he is 250 when full , or always walks at 250 with full belly . weighted 240kg at age 3.5 . there is no information about content .ustaad body looks 200cm long with 140cm approx girth and is very tall tiger , that dimension would lead to approx 250-260 weight. these peoplel like " gree forest" are troll who will repeat again the same things around 1000 times to have fun.

You’re too harsh, he’s raising legitimate concerns. To my knowledge we never got confirmation from Bilal for Ustaads weight claim. If we did that would certainly be good enough but I don’t remember that being the case. It was years ago though so it’s possible. Reply
