Total length = 303 cm
Head-Body length = 207 cm
Shoulder height = 127 cm
Weight = 260 kg 



According to vet, he had eaten a lot of meat which caused gastric torsion in his upper cardiac region. 

From the pic, how much would you estimate for him to have eaten?

Where did you get these measurements from?
Thanks

Just for comparison between him and MB2 who was 195kg at 2.4 yrs old

Both no doubt would be over the curves so assuming all things equal T28 was a little larger than MB2.

Their age would create a difference as well. Star's muscles would be denser since they were mature. 

I forgot to add that when Star died he was severely dehydrated (as the person told). Also he was really thin compared to start-mid of 2010s probably because of his age and was taking a beating from heavy competition. Reply
