The Nikolaev and Yudin tigers perished in the period 1970-1994. The tigers featuring in the first table I posted were captured after the WCS-table had been published in 2005. This means the Nikolaev and Yudin tigers are different from the tigers in the first table I posted. You can use them, that is. 

I've been trying to find the source of the first table, but came up empty. The reason is I lost quite a bit of information when I changed to Windows-10 a few months ago. A great pity, but these things happen. This, by the way, is the reason I often print documents and tables. 

I remember the table was printed in the period I was a member of the former AVA forum. I joined AVA in the fall of 2009 and left in February or March 2014. I was most active in the period 2010-2012. If I was asked to be more specific, I'd say I found the table not long after I joined. This means the table is from a document published in the period 2006-2012. 

In order to find the source of the table, I intend to visit the former AVA forum (now Tapatalk) soon. My guess is the table is in a thread about (the size of) Amur tigers. I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do right now. 

I have more information on the relation between 'heel width' and weight in Amur tigers. I'll post it tomorrow. Reply
