Captive Lion and Tiger weights

[Shadow]

Chaos, lion from Lory Park in South Africa. Said here to be 260 kg at the age of 16 years old. This lion would be interesting to know more about. People who take care of him for sure care, when looking at treatment what this old lion gets.

Quote: "Chaos was anaesthetized at 10:30 am at the zoo, he was then stabilized and all 260kg of lion was loaded by 8 strong keepers into a secure crate and driven to Meudmed. He was accompanied by a full veterinarian team for the entire journey. Once at the clinic, there was a very professional team waiting to receive him at a private entrance. He had to be offloaded by hand and that gave many of the team an idea of how heavy a male lion really is! But it was done with great enthusiasm and respect."
