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.

It is nothing for a tiger though. Todays Bengal Tigers and Siberian Tigers (when Siberians were numerous) have no problems reaching this weight.
The only beneficial distinction was that the Wanhsien Tiger had more muscular front legs/front quarters. I guess he must of train to be a boxer...lol.
I hope there is some new fossil information from the Northern population that got wiped out...
i wonder if the Wanhsien Tiger looked bulky like this
