Robert Paddle (2000, p. 4), in his book: The Last Tasmanian Tiger, quotes an average direct length for an adult male thylacine as 1.63m, and an adult female as 1.54m. The average male body length measurement as cited by Paddle is consistent with the sample group.
Weight: The Siberian tiger is the largest subspecies and males weigh from around 400-675 lbs (181-306 kg), while the Sumatran tiger, the smallest living subspecies, weighs in from around 220-310 lbs (100-136 kg). Females of all tiger subspecies are smaller than males.
