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.

If T-3 was 200 kg at 5 years old, and 240 kgs at 10 years old, this seems to suggest that tigers don't start massively losing weight until after 10 years of age. Just curious though, what was the scale limit in that study? I can't access the paper for what ever reason.

Little question, did anybody manage to corroborate this weight of 240 kg? I wrote to the email in the article, but I don't have any answer yet.
