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

Warsaw on CarnivoraForum has just released data supporting some of my claims; that at near-weight parity, a bear can (and probably most often does) have a very significant advantage in neck and chest girth. The bear is shorter than the tiger, height is probably the same and weight is close to the same (bear slightly lighter, actually). Limb girth is still an unsubstantiated claim, though, still need more data for that. Forget the height-length parity, even at similar weights the bear can easily dominate in girth.

   

So @Pckts is right about weight parity being a better form of measurement, @Spalea is right that even with mathematical and integration methods used, the bear has a much greater volume of weight (throughout its body length) since its curved back is longer than the tiger's straighter back, and @brotherbear is right in how bears are just girthier and more robust in general. All are right in some ways.

Also, look at this post made by Warsaw back in December detailing girth measurements and body weights of brown bears in different areas of the planet:
