In these circumstances... good information about the size of captive Amur tigers can, and should, be posted in this thread.

The thematic of this thread Peter in my humble opinion is not very clearly defined. Title "Tiger - on the edge of extinction" stress more on issues of ecology and protection of tigers and there is no much connection to the issues of size and weight of the captive tigers. Other option for thread is "Panthera tigris - general information".
The reason that scientists in last decades don't collect much data about size and weight of the tigers is that such questions as "who is larger who is stronger?" despite the fact that they are most interesting for the general public play insignificant role in overall tiger biology.
No doubts of course that will be very interesting to know what are actual measurments and weights of modern tigers, especially Royal Bengal tigers.

Weird, since the size of the Pleistocene lions has been extensively studied, yet the Pleistocene tigers have often been neglected by the scientific community.
