How much does a Gayal weight?

It is hard to guess what a Gayal weights. But we have the answer:

An adult Gayal (Bos frontalis) on average weights 800.07 kg (1763.85 lbs).

The Gayal is from the family Bovidae (genus: Bos). It is usually born with about 23.04 kg (50.79 lbs). They can live for up to 26.17 years. When reaching adult age, they grow up to 2.7 meter (8′ 11″). On average, Gayals can have babies 1 times per year with a litter size of 1.

As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.

The average adult weight of a Gayal is 800.07 kg (1763.85 lbs)

The gayal (Bos frontalis), also known as mithun in Myanmar, is a large domestic bovine distributed in Northeast India, Bangladesh, Myanmar and in Yunnan, China.
