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.

n=37 for girth. n=40 for total length.

Girth relationship moderate. Length relationship is statistically significant, but wouldn't say something that strong. 

I'll kill two birds with one stone. The crater lion issue was raised a while ago, and the poster gave his estimate. Using the equation here, the 127 cm girth is of a 192 kg specimen and the 134 cm girth of a 211 kg specimen, averaging the two masses gives 202 kg.
