@Pckts : about #226.
Mohammed Shujath: " Grumpy... " And so what ? When you are looking at the Mohammed Shujath's instagram site, you notice a clear majority of tiger photos. Because he's living in India or because he's biased towards tiger (no problem about it) ? He just expresses his own opinion. And this very biased photo is absolutely not the best one to show Earless at its best moment. We know very well it had very tough times (no use to come back about it). To be more objective I prefer this one...  *This image is copyright of its original author

He's seen Earless and many other lions along with Wagdoh, Bheema and many other Tigers. I suggest you don't make claims about someone being bias or not without proof and nor would it matter. You see them in the wild and you come to your conclusions, its very easy for someone like yourself to claim they are bias but that may have more to do with your own personal feeling than the person who answered the question.
@Pckts :
About #228, #227 and #226: he (Shujath Mohammed) is just a photograph with no one particular zoologist competence. He just expresses a perception and an opinion, and for what it's worths...  But perhaps it's you who are biased to post only this photo of Earless when you know very well it was (and is) much more impressiv than that at its best. You were too happy to post one partial opinon (Sorry for you, it isn't Carnivora forum).

I'd guarantee that He's seen far more wild cats than 99% of the zoologists you can speak with. Once again, what does the photo have to do with it? That is literally the post where the question was asked and btw, there is another post on this thread from someone else who also said Wagdoh is larger than any Lion He's seen in the mara. And yes, this isn't carnivora but you are sounding like some of the poster I come into contact with there. Stop being so sensitive, this is a comparative cat thread and that is comparison between some of the largest of both big cats, you don't like it than that's your prerogative.

Once again, this thread is "Comparing Cats" and what did this person do? 
This is a comparison thread. The instagram post was anecdotal and subjective. Both fair points. However, the foul language and accusations of bias are not warranted. Please don't bring personal qualms from others places here.

Check this far more detailed table from him:  *This image is copyright of its original author The real total length was of 307.4 cm, although the tail was short. Interestingly that Kirby estimated this lion at over 500 lb, about 100 lb less than the largest tiger of Brander.

If we compare either to the Sauraha Male, both are a bit larger than he. |
