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.
I think size, when looking with our eyes is subjective. Some might appreciate a taller lion, one who is more lean but clearly taller, over a shorter stockier lion, one who is really thick and bulky. Personally I am more impressed by the bulkier lions, the ones built like little M1 Abrams tanks. over the taller leaner males. That doesn't mean they are "bigger", as that is something you'll not know unless they both got placed on a scale, it's simply my preference.
Point being that what I might call impressive, someone else might say another lion who is taller and leaner is more impressive.
