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.

In the wild, at this moment, yes.
Male lions from Ethiopia had an average weight of 137.2 kg, but that came from captive specimens. Is like Malayan tigers, they had an average weight of 120 kg but are also captive specimens. We can use them for comparison, but will generate doubt about the accuracy of the final results.
