Do you have the thread link to the verified captive weights of tigers and lions? I realize that a 570 lb cat is is on the larger size, and many of the largest siberians that are not obese generally top out around 600. But the statement is that the lion Asland is the heaviest lion in Europe, my point is based on what? He would not be the heaviest lion in the United States, why would he be the heaviest in Europe? Asland is simply a lion who happened to outweigh a tiger of similar size, which is what I was wondering.
As for the canines, you can't just show a picture of one sample, there would have to be many samples compared for thickness and length.
