It is hard to guess what a Gray brocket weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Gray brocket (Mazama gouazoubira) on average weights 16.63 kg (36.67 lbs).
The Gray brocket is from the family Cervidae (genus: Mazama). It is usually born with about 834 grams (1.84 lbs). They can live for up to 12 years. When reaching adult age, they grow up to 91.8 cm (3′ 1″). Usually, Gray brockets have 1 babies per litter.
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.
