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.

Where are you sourcing that information from? 
Declaration of average weight needs extensive study! Most concrete modern data i have, is that the weight ranges from 150kg-225kg for males & 100-150kg for females (Source1, Source2, etc).

Anyway, after reading your post yesterday, i contacted few of the most qualified people in the field.  
Dr. Jhala replied that he's traveling till 18th & would go through is database once he's back! 

I'm expecting to be able to present some authentic updated numbers by the end of next week...

Meena Venkataraman (researcher, you've seen her in "Last Lions of India" documenary) & Dr. D. Solanki (vet of Sasan Gir Rescue Centre) haven't responded yet.
