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.

Girth Comparaison of Animals

Of course, if you ( pckts ) would rather the tiger win this contest, you can always compare with a smaller bear. May I suggest a marsican brown bear or a Himalayan brown bear - measuring about five feet long. 'Nuff said. 
Tiger chest girth - 119 cm or 47 inches.
Grizzly chest girth - 137 cm or 54 inches.

Heavier bear = Larger Chest girth... 
Bear at equal lengths and taller shoulder height will have a larger chest grith
Bear at equal weight will have a smaller chest girth

Example Below:

Vs

*This image is copyright of its original author

264kg Bear averages 137cm Chest vs 261kg Tiger at 140cm chest
Both are at equal body length 196 v 197 (depending on the means of measuring the bear could be shorter or the tiger could be, or both)
But the bear will most likely have a higher shoulder height


Using that same comparison with Bengal Tigers as well..

*This image is copyright of its original author

Bengals average
190 HBL and 130 Chest girth and shoulder height of 100 at BW average of 204kg
vs
Bears Average
196 HBL and 137 Chest Girth and Shoulder height of 115 at BW average of 264kg

Once again, lb for lb, the tiger is actually going to have the larger chest, neck and limbs most likely.
inch for inch the bear is going to be the heavier individual, larger chest and taller shoulder.
Bengals close the gap though and even at inch for inch they are near the same chest girth since their HBL average is actually less than the bears used which was surprising to me.

You choosing to favor the Inch for Inch comparison is your choice, it slightly favors the bear but not much to be honest, While I prefer the lb for lb measuring option which favors the Tiger and in my opinion is a correct format when comparing two similar species with different skeletal structures and body morphology. 


Lastly I'll say this, all Cats and Bears come in many sizes, using averages and numerical data only shows an extremely small % and it's nice for comparisons like this but in the real world there is no such thing as an "average" Cat or Bear. They all come in many shapes and sizes, you can find outliers for either species that the other would not be able to meet.
