Is this the biggest Siberian tiger in the world? He/she is captive and tame at least with this man. I don’t know who he is. Possibly one of the private zoo owners of America. The Siberian tiger is the world’s biggest cat anyway but of course they vary in size and weight. The maximum seems to be either 716 or 790 pounds depending on your source but I am sure people will claim that this cat can be heavier. Siberian tigers are difficult to weigh 😉 . Especially when they are wild!
The world’s largest cat is the Hercules a liger (lion/tiger hybrid) but this Siberian appears to be a similar size but a bit smaller. I think Hercules weighs about 1000 pounds.
Thanks for agreeing! In general the human is ignorant.
Totally agree. People did not evolve for cages neither did tigers. Sad and depressing world for animals when we evolved to dominate it. more effort should go into saving forests it can be done, creating transit routes for animals to move freely, repopulate and spread their dwindling gene pool, a concept beyond the understanding of so many of these people sadly. I think this is a big Bengal not a Siberian he has short fur, though I could be wrong.
Yes, Bob, there is no tiger habitat at Carl’s place. Just cages and some grass and trees all of which are a tiny fraction of the space required by a tiger.
