What part of the N. East?
They are hardly seen in Kaziranga I'm not sure about other parts of Assam though.
I think the highest weight confirmed was around 1700kg and in S.E. Asia, none in India have come close to that weight to my knowledge.
But I'm curious if you asked him if he actually witnessed a Tiger kill a 1000+kg Bull Gaur, I'm also curious who you're actually speaking with. 
If it's a photographer or a Naturalist, that's not going to hold much weight tbh. Reply
