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.
That pic of Handsome of the lion is when he was younger, he wasn't full grown yet, which is why the mane isn't as large as what you see in later pics.
I was looking for the thread on here on captive weights, I couldn't find it, do you guys have a link for it. Are you guys saying that captive lion or tigers can't exceed 570, I guess that's my question. I suppose if their neutered that changes things, but I guess you couldn't count that.
So perhaps then this tiger Jaipur doesn't weigh 1,000lbs maybe its exaggerated not confirmed.
