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.
Mohawk is a short male, his sons even before they turned 4 were taller than him ( guide's words, saying that after seeing them side by side ).
Tbf, height-wise, lions are close to their peak at 3,5yo, at 4, if they grow any taller, it's by an insignificant degree.
Still, RN's son looks taller than Chela's son, with Chela's son being bulkier despite being at an age where he will still bulk up considerably.
So I'd think that in his prime, Chela's son will be very muscular, with a huge chest girth, though maybe not particularly tall, while RN's son might be above average in height but it's hard to say as Chela's might just be short.
I think while we see short lions here and there ( say Mohawk, BDMs, Ndhzengas... ), most, even the said big or huge lions, have very similar heights.
A lion thought as average like Tumbela is as tall as PCM who are said to be huge. NK Bboy son, Talamati, Gijimas, Nkhulus, Kambulas, Red Road... Probably all around the same height, and we've seen many of them together to have some notion.
Even some massive beasts like Leeubrons were probably not that tall compared to other males mentioned above, if you see that video of them with the Hamilton females.
Big differences in size are more likely to do with body mass, bulkiness and stuff, possibly longer bodies too.
