I was going to suggest a quick fire round and see how many questions of medium difficulty we can answer in 48 hrs. Maybe an idea for next week.

My question is: what is the biggest known species of cat in the world ?

If you know the answer then feel free to estimate the height, length and weight of a full grown specimen.

Define "Cat" please.

 

[daverichardson]

*****?
er no let's not go there or is it too late?

 

[CatmanV2]

Define "Cat" please.

Surely that would be my line?

C

 

[spkennyuk]

Define "Cat" please.

I will rephrase the question.

What according to the guinness book of records is the largest cat in the world ?

Cat being domesticated, wild or captivity bred.

 

[allandwf]

I believe Andy is correct then, it is a tiger but not sure which subspecies.

 

[spkennyuk]

Sorry Andy i missed your answer but no its not a tiger.

I will give a clue as i had to rephrase the question. Its a hybrid.

 

[CatmanV2]

Sorry Andy i missed your answer but no its not a tiger.

I will give a clue as i had to rephrase the question. Its a hybrid.

Is it not a Liger?

C

 

[conaero]

Catman?

 

[allandwf]

Catman?

That will be the tallest

 

[spkennyuk]

Is it not a Liger?

C

Now that is appropriate that felis catus homosapien got the correct answer.

Hercules the Liger is 6ft tall when stood on all four feet. 11ft in length and tips the scales at around 430 kilos



Your question Mr C

 

[spkennyuk]

Catman?

If that had been right then you would of been setting the next question. That would of been a first for this thread.

Your question Mr C

Felis Sapiens, please

Which is heavier by traditional measurement? Gold or feathers?

C

 

[BennyD]

A pound of feathers weighs the same as a pound of gold.

 

[zagatoes30]

Which is heavier by traditional measurement? Gold or feathers?

C

Surely it depends on the quantity? 1 tonne of feathers is heavier than 1 gramme of gold

 

[CatmanV2]

A pound of feathers weighs the same as a pound of gold.

The clue is in the question.....

C

 

[spkennyuk]

Felis Sapiens, please

Which is heavier by traditional measurement? Gold or feathers?

C

Doesnt it depending on the amount your weighing. Troy ounce is heavier than a imperial ounce but a troy pound is less than an imperial pound.

Or am i reading too much into the question.

I think the question is reasonably clear as to how much is being weighed.....

C

 

[zagatoes30]

Gold is weighed in Troy measures where an ounce is different to normal measures but they are less ounces in a pound in the Troy system.

So spkennyuk is correct. We have agreed that Gold is weighed in Troy measures so the remaining question is what is the traditional measurement of feathers?
