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.

Personally, I will stick with the "true" record lion of the 240 kg "empty" male lion weighed by the late Dr Hu Berry, and in the last case, the 250 kg "empty" lion from Timbavati. No more "mythical" giants for me, thank you. [img]images/smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
I agree. Claims of hunters from long ago are just not very credible. Its typical to inflate the weights/size claimed on
prized trophies, while on the flipside, specimens weighed/measured by vets/biologists are legit. There will always be
a degree of doubt regarding hunting claims.
