Of course not the same as scientific study, but still interesting to read something from a hunter who doesn´t seem to like exaggerate. Point in that text was, that experienced hunter wasn´t so impressed, that there would be some leopard like almost a different animal compared to others. Another point was, that he had heard rumors about some big ones, but not seen one. I will take some time to look closer a bit too :) Just for curiosity if there would be something solid or some expert opinion claiming, that rainforest leopards would be considerably bigger than what is quite usually thought so far. I haven´t seen such information yet. 150 pounds leopard is actually quite big, about 70 kg. 185 pounds leopard is then again huge. I don´t know how that is an understatement when it is quite good in line with information which is usually said about leopards. It is difficult to see a reason why this man wouldn´t say what he thinks. Usually hunters are suspected about exaggerations and they take photos in a way making animals look as big as possible. |
