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.

Modern Weights and Measurements of Jaguars

Here are some better pictures of Sandro, he's also estimated to be 7 years of age:

We can use the picture above to compare with this picture of a gorged Sumatran tiger:

The comparison with the Sumatran is almost perfect baring the angle of the pictures. Since both felids completely overlap in weight on a species level, both of these specimens represent large males, and we know that they require 12-15 kg of meat to be fully gorged, it's reasonable to suggest that the tiger above might have around that much stomach content. If we look at Sandro, his belly is almost flat but it hangs low, hence why it can be said that he isn't gorged but not empty either.
