Nice pictures Pckts but this is the Late B2 of Bandhavgarh  What do you find impressive is the real question.

B2 may look more "ripped or defined" from that angle but he would never come close to being as strong. It would be like comparing a power lifters body to a Male models body. Maybe B2 is slightly more agile and faster over a distance since he holds less muscle mass but his explosive speed and power would never be able to match these guys below.
But it doesn't mean that he is not impressive in his own right, just in terms of comparing the largest species of cat in the world.

Your analogy is exaggerated. Excessive bulk is detrimemental.
"Explosive speed and power" is HIS advantage. There is a size
limit, that when exceeded, can inhibit a big cats hunting success.
B2 - at the time of the photo - was at optimum size level.  JMO
 

 

 

My analogoy is exagerrated?
Its just used to show the differences in body types. Don't be fooled, power lifters are extremely explossive and fast. Most can broad jump, box jump higher or sprint faster than anybody you know, its when you need long endurance that muscle mass becomes a detriment.
Hence a 100yd sprinters body compared to a marathon runner.

"Excessive bulk is detrimemental." Of course if we are talking about obesisty. Not talking about wild animals that have already proven to be extremely productive.

"Explosive speed and power" is HIS advantage. There is a size
limit, that when exceeded, can inhibit a big cats hunting success.
Agreed, once again its not in these cats.
Hence the fact that they live in the wild and have the largest animals in India to prey on, they also have the highest competition so obviously this is evolutions plan for them.
There is nothing you could say that could disprove the fact that they are the perfectly suited to live is in the harshest and most competitive tiger landscape around.

Optimumal size for what?

Hunting?
Kaziranga Tigers have a Larger Prey base

Fighting?
Kaziranga has the highest mortality rate and tiger densisty.

I think you mean that you just like B2's body type.
That is all you could really be saying here.
