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.

Unfortunately no tiger data is available. However, the two species have similar lifespans and thus similar growth timelines is not illogical. Even if Bheema was 200 kg at 2.5 yrs, 270+ kg is well within the ballpark unless he was a very early bloomer.
