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.

Splendid male tiger. The tigress isn't small either.
Nice footage, but a close call again. Tourism in the mating season is not a good idea.
That tigress (Collarwali) weighed in at 145 Kg when she was 2 years and 5 months old (when she was a sub adult).
Do you know who confirmed that weight?
Based on the studies "Home Range of the Radio-collared Bengal Tigers in Pench Tiger Reserve", three tigers were radio collared (one adult female, one adult male and a subadult male). During the period March 2008 to December 2011.

The T15 adult female is none other than Collarwali tigress.
She was born in October 2005 and was radiocollared on March 2008 (2 years 5 months).
Her mother is the famous Barimada (meaning BIG female).

Body weights were estimated based off of drug administration not actually weighed.

I should of read closer, curious though that they estimated the sub adult male between 100-120kg yet it weighed 180kg but they didn't need to administer more sedative to that one?

As far as I know they didn't administer anymore sedative to that sub-adult male.
The amount of sedatives given were,
2.5ml for the sub-adult
2.75ml for the female tigress
3ml for the adult male
Unfortunately the adult male was estimated to be 200-220Kg and was administered 3ml sedative, but it was not enough to bring the male down so they again sedated the male with another 1.2ml sedative, which is 40% more sedative than actually required for a (200-220Kg) male. So this could mean the adult male was possibly heavier than their estimated weight. Unfortunately the weighing scale was not big enough to see this males full potential and hence they reported the weight to be greater than 200Kg.
