Very BIG cat
 

My buddy just sent me this pic. I don' t know the story behind it, but this is one big cat.

Yea I saw this on another forum.

Supposed quote from the hunter:

We actaully took him home whole and weighed him at the fish Hatchery scale in town, he was 190 pounds. The Skull is 15-12/16 which makes him tied with 5 others skulls for 6th place over all.

I also got this information.

the cat was taken about 20 minutes east of Bellevue (Washington) just outside of North Bend.

Anyone who knows anything about cougars knows damn well that this picture is not the real deal. Reality check time folks. It' s painfully obvious that the photograph has been digitally altered (and not very well at that). I' m sure the next person will challenge this, saying that it' s not only the real thing but that they saw it in person. Believe what you want. Here' s a pic of my friends housecat.

Photographs can be very deceiving. Judging by the picture that cat would weigh more than 190 pounds. :)

Digital photography aside, there is something about the cougar that makes the picture totally unbelievable. I will grant that the cougar in the picture does indeed look huge, it is apparently very thick thoughout the body and as represented in the picture would probaly top well in excess of two hundred pounds (at least in scale). The only problem is the size of the cougar in relationship to the man holding it. You see if the cougar in the question is as heavy and large as it seems then it is impossible that the man in the picture is to scale. Problem being is that a cougars body (on average) is 7-8 feet long and 10-11 with the tail. Females weigh 45 kilograms or 95 pounds. Males weigh 60-70 kilograms or 130-160 pounds. However the Biggest males can weigh 200 pounds. Now unless buddy in the picture is 9 feet tall, this picture is bogus.

check out all these fake pictures, lets use our CSI skills on these pictures with that awesome theory of scale.

better let boone and crockett know about that theory - they are a bunch of suckers in need of a reality check too.
