From advance, thank you.

the weight comes from veterinarian's ig post as you can see here:

once again, these figures comes from conflict/unhealthy tigers. 1 year old tigers without their mother clearly are problematic tigers. from the camera trap pictures we can see some big healthy "normal" wild tigers out there but we can only guess how much their weight since there are literally none of them, except maybe slamet, a healthy adult male weighing 150kg. we are all understand there are no reason for the govt/scientists to capture and takes measurements from these normal adult wild tigers, too much effort needed, too dangerous for both tigers and people involved. if india and rusia only have a few records, let alone sumatra, where prime adult tigers live deep inside thick jungle. 
anyway here are some camera trap pictures of healthy wild specimens.
these tigers coming straight from the jungle.
