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.

Also, do you have the sub adult Amurs weight claim?

What kind of verification would you need? The biologist himself is on video stating that he knows of a wild male Amur tiger weighing over 250 kg. Isn't that reliable enough?

Also, the other Amur tiger recently captured in Northeast China wasn't a sub-adult, it was a young juvenile tiger aged 2-3 years old. Some reports say that it was 2 years old. I posted several reports on page 171 of this thread, which mentions the young tiger weighed 225 kg. 

Here's numerous articles all reporting that this 2-3 year old juvenile tiger weighed 225 kg; The young tiger was named 'Wanda Mountain'.

You need verification from someone who actually participated in the alleged weighing. 

And those articles a re a perfect example.
The 2nd and 3rd one for instance specifically said “approximately 225kg”

And they’re not the only articles, here’s another with a 200kg claim

On top of the video I showed with a 300lb claim.


These inaccuracies are usually signs that the weights alleged are estimations.
