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.

Zawadi, I contacted Oregon zoo about his weight, the biologist there said that he weighs 230 kg currently,His name is also in data regarding lion weights made by @Kingtheropod.To my surprise what makes him 230 kg? He must have larger dimensions (Height, length)  to be that much for his frame. What do you guys think? Does he look tall or average in Shoulder height?

He's fairly tall at the shoulder but slim in the body, he doesnt look 230kg to me but I could be wrong. Both Han and Ali look larger than him and neither is 230kg so who knows.

Han may be shorter but robust and Ali may be comparable in height to Zawadi. Zawadi's description is average in build in the table

I'd say Ali is taller imo, at Lions, Tigers and Bears they have a 525lb Tawny male, he's shorter shouldered but very stocky/overweight and they also have a 500lb White Lion that's very tall at shoulder with a similar build to Zawadi, I'd almost guarantee that the White Lion at LTB is much taller than Zawadi though. I'm 6'5 for comparison and this is the 525lb Male I'm talking about.
