About latest postings. Most of those lions look like to be a bit on the... "fat side" to say it nicely. Not maybe in gross way, but somewhat. Then again when we are talking about lions, not ligers, putting figures like 400 kg is just unrealistic. While everyone who are honestly interested about big cats with realistic point of view are struggling to find a few individuals which would be even 300 kg (not obese) lions or tigers, saying that some individual would be even 400 kg.... there is no justification for such claim really.

Only known big cats able to reach 400 kg are ligers, when we aren´t talking about overfed "pets". And when looking at some ligers said to have been 400 kg, maybe a bit overweight there too. Big lions in some photos, but it would be better to keep things realistic and not reach too far. Reply
