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.

Which Zoo's have you seen Captive Bengals at? 

@Ashutosh 
While I agree that Tigers have and still do suffer immensely, I do think some reserves that are protected now have cats that are back to their prime size.
I think Kanha and Bandhavgarh are perfect example's, their Tigers are massive.

Mysore zoo which works under WAZA,Trivandrum zoo,National zoo in Delhi,.Its a misconception that animals in Indian zoos are malnourished.Here cats and other animals are well fed and most of them has lived more than 18 years.Here is a video which shows how Indian zoos look like.



As you can see the Bengal looks small about 360-370 lbs(guess) and it is the only zoo in India which has African lions.The African looked bigger about 400 lbs



The male in left cage is 16 years old and right one 12.My guess they are around 380-400 lbs
