I think you didn't even take the time to read the few words I wrote under the picture. Edited by ManEater, Mar 12 2014, 02:11 AM.

Mass is size, he is technically the largest unless there is a larger one in mass terms. Honesly it being fat or not has no relevance. |

All those look absolutely massive, but do you have any reference or measurements? Looks are not always the most reliable thing to go by. |

Wagdoh is estimated by Indian rangers to be close to 300 kg (660 lb). B2 is probably closer to 260 kg (570 lb). I have a picture of B2's measurements compared to a truck tyre marking (in the sand), and when given the fact that the tyre marks are about 16" wide, B2 should be 4.17 feet tall and 7.70 feet long (for the basis of this scale, his paw was on the tyre marking). I'll post this picture after I move all my crap from photobucket to igmur. Not the most reliable method, but it's better than nothing Edited by Vodmeister, Apr 12 2014, 01:38 PM.

Isn't a snout-vent length of 7.7 feet quite unimpressive for a tiger? Looks to be bigger than that. |

The average length of a Bengal tiger is 190 cm, B2's 7.7 feet body makes him 235 cm. I'm not sure what you're talking about. |

Maybe my numbers included the tail length? Most sources state the length without any clarification at all, so I'm not sure what exactly is included under an 11 foot measure. |

Those 11 feet specimen includes tail length, typical tiger body length is 6-7 feet. |

Not the biggest, but here's a freakin huge american bullfrog that my friend caught yesterday. His hands are about 8 inches long, just giving you an idea of how big it is. http://instagram.com/p/mwKB5rDXOv/ Edited by Colubrid, Apr 15 2014, 12:52 PM.
