Munna looks to be "average"
Ok, thats pretty absurd my friend.

Watch at :26 second mark.
The guy is a beast, he is massive, controls one of the highest tiger populations and largest areas known to exist in india or assam. Defeated numerous other large males multiple times, killed others.
He is anything but "average" and I definitely think he is larger than Bamera. Bamera is large but lacks the overall girth that munna has. Munna is thick from front to back, he is just a thick guy. That is where the weight comes to play.

Another eye witness account of his sizeMunna Tiger an Epitome by pateluday @ 2013-11-10 – 12:06:20 He is one of the largest male tigers I have seen in the Kanha Park. Munna as he is affably called is about six or seven years and is in prime. He patrols Sal Ghat, DigDola and Saunf Meadow areas of Kanha National Park in Madhya Pradesh in India. The big cat is so powerful that it wades through areas of other big cats in the park. It has been seen as far as Mukki Range which is about 35 km from Kisli Zone. As a defense mechanism the territory of tigers keep changing, This was my third encounter with Munna the first one was few years back. The tiger has sired many cubs and heads the breeding profile of the tiger reserve. Male tigers have a tough time holding their territory which is always challenged by other dominant males.

Another eye witness account
Munna "CAT-napping" Munna, the erstwhile dominant male of the Kanha meadows had just settled down for a siesta one late morning. This is an old picture taken in 2010 when Munna was in his prime and still the obvious ruler of the Kanha meadows. In summer 2012, he seemed to have shifted his base to Sarhi and was seen more often in the Sarhi - Dig Dola areas over the last year. One can only guess what made him do that...some believe Munna was eventually pushed out of the meadows by Kankata, an equally old male who suddenly started making his presence felt on the meadows in a big way since the summer of 2012. Kankata was feared dead when the park re-opened for the winter of 2013, however, the good news is that he is still alive and roams extensively and has been sighted nearly everywhere in the tourism zone - Kanha, Kisli, Sarhi, and Mukki! Munna has been sighted this season on Salghat and route 9, however, he no longer has a strong presence on the meadows the way he had from 2009 to 2012. Though he still looks fit in the photos this year, old age could possibly be catching up with him. We also have some young aspirants to the throne of the king of the meadows. As all the three famous giants - Munna, Naak Kata, and Kankata are almost past their prime, probably, one of Munna's own cubs, or a cub of his ferocious and long-time feuding neighbour Naak-kata, or a cub of the cool Kankata could eventually take over the meadows soon. There have been reports of an extremely large young male tiger known as Mundi Dadar male (believed to be son of Naak-kata) lurking around the meadows. Only time will tell who will be ushered in as the new prince of this beautiful kingdom.

There is no way anybody could seriously call this cat "average" or think that he is "200kg"
You're not being reasonable Lioness, Im sorry.

Thats two more eye witness accounts that call him massive as well as being the same size as Naak male or Patewal. [img]images/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Reply
