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.

I don't know about uma being larger than Bheema, if you watch the video they seem very close in size and to me Bheema actually seemed a little bit larger but hard to tell obviously. Naren said bheema is "taller" while Uma has the "largest head of all the mukki males" and Sahil said bheema has a "heavy body" and says uma has a "larger head and limbs."
It could be like splitting hairs between the two of them, even kingfisher and uma when they fought were close in size, kingfisher did look larger though and most say that kingfisher is just a dense, robust and even "fat" tiger.
Much like how some used to describe Wagdoh.
Either way, mukki is like the wild west of tiger land.... 4 males sharing a small territory, but I do notice that the females there seem to have a tough time protecting cubs which is why they mate with multiple males so often. I wonder what makes mukki so desirable?
Edit: To be fair, bheema is a bit closer to the camera than Uma, both are close in size, that's for sure.
