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.

No body measurements of this lion has been presented in any sources, nor even in the original report, which is very rare, coming from the fact that this is a important factor. Besides, there is no skull size too, although the large size of the skull don't represent a large weight, specially in lions.
So no, there is no way to know the size of this lion and the picture itself shows a lion of ordinary dimensions, probably no more than 200 kg. it seems that those "giants" are, at the end, just myths and the fact that it was "verified" by "several" people, at the end, don't add anything, as we don't know "who" verified it. If it was just the hunter and his friends as I think, well, that will destroy the credibility of this record.
