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.

The alleged 280 kg lion does not even look close to 280 kg, he looks more like 190-220 kg. Again most likely an overestimation as a result of being intrigued by a normal big cat's size for the first time, or not adjusted for stomach content. Think about it, a 280 kg lion would not have the stomach tuck pointing up, his stomach would instead distend downwards. His quarters should also be bigger as well. He looks to be only slightly larger than an average-sized lion.
