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.

Girth Comparaison of Animals

About #154: If you want to estimate an animal's weigth, you have to take into account the whole whole cross section of the body and the animal's length over the curves because the muscles structure intervenes in the cross section shape and in the body length. Put two same bipedal height men into a quadrupedal posture, the former with a desperately flat back, the latter more athletic back with undulating curves due to his more developped musculature. The muscles intervene as concerns a three dimensionnal size estimation. If they intervene as concerns the body cross section, they intervene too as concerns the body length.

And yes you cannot deny that the camel's "unfolded back" is longer than the horse's more rectilinear back. Even if both animals seem to have the same body length.

All this is understood. However, our "debate" is not about weight estimation. It is about a fair girth comparison between tiger and grizzly. It was once found in a similar topic in the old AVA that the head-and-body length ( in a straight line ) of big cats and bears is nearly identical to their bipedal height. For a fair comparison of chest girth, length should be used; like two men each standing six feet tall. Naturally, the animal with the greater girth is likely to be the heavier of the two. Weight comes with girth and it is girth that we are comparing. To shrink the grizzly down to tiger weight is to disqualify the bear from having a fair contest. Simple as that.
