But for others, you have to provide sources from where you get this. So that others can cross verify that. I am fairly certain that T24 weight from wikipedia is false. Yet, some people continue to use false weights. Few other weights are based on guesswork. Onus is upon you for the sake of truthfulness and clarity.

I never knew T24 had a page dedicated to him on wikipedia so i went and looked. how is it false? Ustaad weighed 240kg as a 3.5 year old male in 2009. are you telling me, the same male can’t reach 18 kilograms during his prime age. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRTd9Jlnfj8 height of the cage is usually 4ft (as i have enquired). how tall is this kaziranga guy ? , it can't stand properly in 4ft tall cage . this male is said to be 250kilos from kaziranga as said by reliable people .

back in the days, this male made headlines all over the original ava forums and other online platforms. no doubt, he had some impressive dimensions and he wasn’t the only one. a wounded male from Orang NP from almost a decade ago also showed some exceptional dimensions.

from the tip of the nose to the end of his tail. many predicted that this tiger could’ve easily compared with the Sauraha male of Nepal. unfortunately no measurements were even taken and he wasn’t weighed either. he was found in a terrible condition and after attempts to save him. he succumbed to his injuries. this was also a blast from the past. one of the original tiger that sparked many people’s interest regarding the sizes of Assam tigers.

mirror image of the same male next to Sauraha male, i’ll be honest. i find picture comparisons to be bogus majority of the time. however, there are certain things that your eyes can’t unsee and in this tiger’s case. his overall length and massive frame were exceptional to say the least. it’s no surprise that he has turned up in a lot of discussions over the years.

i’ll do a part two about the cages, gotta catch up on some sleep. i’ll try to post tomorrow or sometime this week.

how tall are these cages , they look close to 4ft approx . while lying down that sunderkhal maneater tiger looked bigger than both of these two sauraha and assam  male .

That fence no doubt is close to 4' but this one, which is the one they're talking about is most likely smaller

Best guess would be to assume the squares are close to 2'' then count how many there are.
Unfortunately it's a little blurry but I get around 15 and there is some metal above and beneath them so my estimation would be around 36'' tall for that cage. Reply
