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.

Sorry but in all honesty what does that even mean? From the pictures he looks definitely gorged / fully fed. He evidently had a meal recently and additionally ate something from the bait although not much as you said (5-10 kg)

Just to clear up some confusion. The male of 240 kg mentioned by karanth was actually the 230 kg male from the book. In Karanth (2003) it was stated that males eat in their first meal 20-35 kg, which obviously refer to the collared males.

Also that would mean that Karanth actually substracted 20, 30 and 35 kg for tigers that were empty, which is weird and obviously a false view.

Karanth basically substracted the estimated stomach content based on their bellies. So the book actually just indicates that he had a meal recently and ate from the bait as well.

Of course that male tiger T-04 had stomach content, it is obvious (but we need to remember the case of the biggest lion from Smuts, so...), but I was just placing a bait and you bite it. From all the posters here you are the only one that answered to that post and was the only form that you returned to post again here.

Now, let's talk directly SpinoRex, or I should say "Yusuf", the lion fanatic already banned here, that wants to create a "reputation" just because you have a few new lion weights apparently confirmed (and all of them "empty belly", which is suspicious) and that is only copy-pasting the posts of Waveriders like if he was a real authority. Oh yes, I knew who you are since the beggining when you send me those emails and I was also whatching your posts in Carnivora, but the last post, especifically the one against me and this forum, was too much. I don't like the hipocrate people like you, so I am going to prepare an especific post answering against your attacks and the false information that you are spreading, in a direct form and not like you, showing one face here and other face in Carnivore and also Discord. 


By the way, there is no confusion about the male T-01, all posters know which tiger is him, in fact Dr Karanth told me that the male that is quoted as 230 kg in this book and 240 kg in other book, actually weighed 238 kg including the resent meal.

@peter, @sanjay and @tigerluver,  here is the link where he acused our forum of bias. Check the post 11525 https://carnivora.net/lion-v-tiger-t19-s11520.html
