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.

Its interesting because the average weight for males was 76kg and the average weight for females was 68kg. All animals were healthy and between 3-12 years of age. The largest male leopard weighed 101kg and the largest female leopard weighed 85kg. These are captive indian leopards who were immobilized and weighed in various zoos across india.
The link doesn't work well, I can't access it. Can you send a valid one because I really wanna see how true the "healthy" claim is but I really doubt that, an 85 kg female leopard would probably be a piece of wobbling fat considering that's an indian female and that the largest recorded female from there was like 59 kgs so assuming that's a large female she would have like 21 kgs of fat.


Are there images of the males as well? I probably believe most of them are overweight, I'm curious to see how "healthy" the 101 kg male really is
