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.

Wow Bajrang is huge, was Choti Tara the Tigress that was weighed (85 kg)? Only asking because he looks so freaking big!

That’s correct, but he’s said to be significantly larger than Matkasur as well.

Choti Tara was weighed around October/2014 just after the monsoon and was pretty frail that season. she’s much larger now.

Choti Tara with cubs (April/2018) the two cubs were later radiocollared and weighed by Dr.Parag Nigam and Dr.Bilal Habib two months later in (June/2018) one of them weighed 173kg and 162kg respectively, let’s say since (April/2018) they gained roughly 30 kilograms. (High-balling it) Choti Tara at the very least is 130 kilograms in the present days, which is a fairly average weight for a tigress from this region.

She’s not that large of a Tigress, she’s definitely muscular without an ounce of fat but her frame isn’t anything extraordinary compared to the others I’ve seen and spoken to the guides about.

Definitely not the biggest female, that’s for sure. she still makes up for that with sheer dominance. she’s been ruling for 6 years now.

never thought matkasur was impressive in size..though he's atleast bigger than a number of males from bandhavgarh like somanshu who i think is rather small,it appears none of bamera's male cubs are of good size save for johnno they have the physique of the line but not the frame

Thanks to @Roflcopters and @Pckts 
Bajrang you can clearly see is a large male. I remember a while ago somebody (who had seen both) told me he was even bigger than Wagdoh. So he must be large. Thanks for the information on Choti Tara, I have never been too impressed by Tadoba tigresses size wise, but they seem though. Maya who doesn’t look big either even killed an adult gaur. And I don’t doubt Choti Tara could do that too! And I doubt a 85 kg cat could do that (a leopard could not bring down a gaur), still a 130 kg cat killing a 500 kg bovine is insane!

T37 looks larger and Bheem and Mangu (not positive they are bamera boys but I’ve seen it said) are definitely larger. I know some one who’ve seen Matkasur and Mangu and Mangu is a good amount larger, Bheem is said to be larger still.

Umarpani dominating MV2
He needs to get out of Uma’s territory or he’s not going to survive imo! Sharad said he fears he might not get’s out quickly enough!

@Pantherinae 

Bajrang is huge but Prime Wagdoh was on a different level! I have yet to see a tiger from Tadoba that could be bigger than Wagdoh. he had the height, body length and he was just a massive male in every department possible.

Yes I hear some say this and some say that about Wagdoh, most say he’s huge (my father included, although his estimations can be pathetic lol), but also that he’s not that big. I best is probably to see them for you’re self. Wagdoh is big, but I have seen tigers that impress me more (not from Tadoba, maybe Katazari is close) ?

bheem and mangu blue eyes aswell are sons of mangal half bro of bam they're all about the same in size as for bam's sons pushpraj,kanvar,somanshu they appear to be of smaller frame
well atleast me..somanshu's late mate/sister/cousin tyra was pretty much the same height as him while she isn't a small tigress pretty good sized guys like bam,bheem,mangal,mangu,jobhi,mamu,pannalal,ect. would've easily dwarfed her
