#3 - wild (semi-mathematical) guess:

2 pounds/day * 365 days/year * 70 years/average life = 51,100 pounds

5 pounds/day * 365 days/year * 70 years/average life = 127.750 pounds

So, I'll guess 50 tons!

It IS a land mammal, smaller than a moose, bigger than a Whitetail Deer but smaller than a Mule Deer.... (and not a member of the deer family at all.)
