By weight · Order from lightest to heaviest.

1. A whole Thanksgiving turkey 7.5 kg

   Wild turkeys can fly at up to 90 km/h in short bursts; the broad-breasted domestic birds on holiday tables cannot fly at all.

2. A capybara, the world's largest rodent 50 kg

   Capybaras are so famously chill that birds, monkeys, and even crocodilians perch and lounge on them like furniture.

3. An adult male African lion 190 kg

   A lion's roar can be heard up to 8 km away, thanks to uniquely flat, square-shaped vocal folds.

4. An adult blue whale 140 t

   The largest animal ever known has a heart the size of a small car, and its calves gain roughly 90 kg per day on milk alone.

5. The Statue of Liberty 204 t

   Her copper skin is only about as thick as two pennies; the green color is a patina that took roughly 30 years to develop.

6. The supertanker Seawise Giant, fully loaded 650K t

   The longest ship ever built could not transit the Suez or Panama canals — or even the English Channel — when fully laden.
