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.

Yes it was in fact weighed. I hate to bring up AVA here but this was the thread discussing this issue (which you must read if you want to get to the bottom of this): http://animalsversesanimals.yuku.com/top...pro?page=1

Bold champ's email that confirmed the matter was posted in the last page of this thread, this coming from the head of the nature reserve. He specifically (and in very firm language) clarified that this lion was weighed and that Christina Hansen had left the Leopard Project as they no longer had any records of her. This 280kg lion was a nomad along with another male that invaded Timbavati reserve around early 2012 (I think this is most likely what happened but I'm not entirely 100% sure), it was noted particularly for its large size and aggression, killing cubs of the resident pride. To me, that explains the Christina Hansen photos of October 2011 was of the resident lions and NOT the two nomads. One of us here could ask Almero Bosch again to clear this matter up once and for all, but for all practical purposes he had already answered our burning question of whether this lion was actually weighed, and that answer is YES.
