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.

He was hungry therefore attacked the villager nearby, therefore we can assume he was empty-bellied during the sedation.
Do you have any verification of his weight?
That would put him near the males weighed in Kanha at the same age who bottomed 225kg scales.
225kg is likely an estimate and not an actual weight. This weight came from a news website article. And on the other hand, another website article had claimed 200kg for this male so it’s most likely an estimate and not an actual weight. I’ll try to find the other article.
Hi, now, I know the 'along to curves' to 'in a straight line' length ratio of tigers, but what about height? Also, what's the rate for lions?
