Top 10 Strongest Land Animals by Nobody: 6:53am On Sep 12, 2014
1Tiger

I've just seen a video of different animal fights and their violence is unbelievable. Animals fight for their lives and only then would you see their real power. Tigers are rarely attacked hence you rarely see them fight with all of their strength. When little animals get hurt they become two times faster and more fierce, something you can rarely see in lions and tigers also because of their courage. Same thing applies to other large animals. But, taken all into account, speed, stamina, prowess, ability in general, tiger takes the top. It beat lions almost always and lions beat crocodiles and rhinos... Other comparison is only imaginary because lions do not meet bears and so on.
Tigers are not the strongest animal. Elephants and rhinos are, merely because of their shear size. HOWEVER, tigers are, by a long shot, the strongest cat and are known to destroy male lions in 1 versus 1 fights. Its been proven in almost all 1960 cage fights and in the Colosseum back in Ancient Rome. Russian Brown Bears make up 5 percent of the Siberian tiger�'s diet. Although tigers are not as "strong" as elephants and rhinos, there have been several accounts where tigers have killed elephants and many more where tigers have mauled rhinos to death. There have been no cases of elephants/rhinos killing tigers however. Scientists have also proven that the tiger is the only animal with a roar capable of paralyzing its victims. The tiger is indisputably the emperor of the beasts

2Elephant

Think, people! Elephants weigh tons and can uproot trees, turn over SUVs, and destroy all other animals on this list! The elephant is also smarter than every other creature here except maybe a gorilla, and even a gorilla could get destroyed by an elephant. Turn over to mythical creatures and you will see that even a phoenix or pegasus would get defeated by a really strong elephant. Unicorns would probably come close. So would serpopards or minotaurs. Many dragons and sea serpents would meet their fates at the hands of an elephant. Ganesha himself received most of his glory from elephants. According to the top rank, a crocodile can almost beat up a great white shark. Well, then, why isn't the great white ahead of it? Elephants could crush almost all living things that ever existed, living, extinct, and mythological. Maybe there will be a creature that is to come that can destroy an elephant. But in all stories ever told, besides holy creatures and beings, humans, elves, properly equipped dwarves, some and maybe the strongest dragons and tigers could destroy the great elephants. When the Romans destroyed Carthage of Libya, Hannibal, a general from Carthage, rode upon an army of elephants on the northern border of Rome. Even with catapults and brilliant strategists, Rome was unable to destroy it. Find another creature that can defeat the greatest empire that ever existed! Let's see, elephants are in fourth place. Gorillas in third. Isn't an elephant smarter than a gorilla? Maybe not, but can a gorilla uproot a tree and fling it a hundred feet away? No!
Can a black bear do the same? No! Crocodiles? An elephant may not be able to crush a crocodile with one stomp, but an elephant can lift a crocodile and fling it a mile away, as crocodiles aren't even close to elephant weight and elephants can lift around 200 times their own weight! This may have been a long comment, but it just shows never to mess with elephants!
Elephant weighs over 6000kg and can carry more than 9000kg. As for crocodile killing a great white shark that would never happen a crocodile would never meet a great white in the ocean. Please note leopards lions have been observed killing crocodiles. Crocodiles isn't the number one not by along shot.
Go elephants! They weigh tons are cute and very very very very strong! Also very fun to ride! So cool I love them and I am glad they are #1

3Lion

These creatures are made for battle. They have a brute paw swipe. A simple tiger's paw swipe rips a person's neck off. The lion has a much more powerful swipe so it could do tons more damage. Furthermore, they always take on everything. Tigers prefer not to attack. Lions also, are smarter being more social and have much more muscle. Their mane furthermore, protects, them from any serious bites. Rather, they train to fight. Lions are also, faster and taller. They are also, about the same length as a tiger. If you see more documentaries you can see lions often kill and scare away do nile crocs in the water. Furthermore, lions kill elephants and giraffes. Male lions do 99% of the work on these lethal attacks. The lion truly is the king of the beasts.
Lion is the king of the forest
Lions can actually kill a tiger if he catches Him off guard or is quite and stealthy enough but either way if a lions ever meets a tiger the tiger will be outnumbered

4Gorilla

Gorillas are about 10x stronger than us
Gorilla can lift up 30 humans without any problem, the ratio by the way his size and his strenght is one of the best or the best, and Gorilla have the strongest arms.
Gorilla has the power to move any thing its size
More comments about Gorilla

5Crocodile

The saltwater crocodile has the world's most powerful bite force. A saltwater crocodile over 4.5 metres (15 ft) in length can exert over 2.2 tonnes (5, 000 lb) of pressure per square inch (PSI). Males of even larger sizes can exert around 3 tonnes (6, 600 lb) of pressure per square inch. They can smash through bone like you would eat toast. A 5 metre (16 ft) saltwater crocodile can kill an adult human with a single bite.
A crocodile can kill a great white shark by the way and nothing can prey on it only little crocodiles are preyed on. They have been around for millions of years. There is a chance a crocodile can kill an elephant because it is worlds greatest stealth hunter. I've seen a video when a crocodile killed a bull elephant
Strongest bite in the world. Even though sluggish by nature it is very fast. They can grow very big. Up to 1 ton. It is the only animal that can prey on lions.68 teeth in its mouth to crush bone

6Rhino

Big strong horn!

Rhino are the strongest land animal because their but power and there leg strength they will buck a gorilla and cary it a mile.
The black rhino is now extinct thanks to humans. They should not be killed for their horns. Respect them!

7Kodiak Bear

A kodiak bear could crush a bowling ball with a bite. Decapitate a moose with swipe. It should be #1. Bears often kill tigers is Russia where the 2 coexist. Tigers only kill hibernating bears and subadults. A kodiak bear can easily kill a elephant as tigers and lions have done so. It is also, smarter than all but the elephant in this list. They have sacrificed agility for brute strength. They also, have speed though. They run as fast as any tiger or cat. They have blunt, but longer claws. Same eyesight, as cats but better smell than dogs. They are the ultimate land predator.
Kodiak bears: 2.50 m and 900 kg
Funny how The Kodiak bear is below lions, gorrilas, crocodials, tigers, hippos, and even a beetle. The Kodiak bear can reach up to 1200lbs+, can run up to 40 mph, and have the strongest claw swipe out of any known animal. Back in the late 1800's-early 1900's they had animal fights in which it was bear vs lion and bear vs bull, both of which the bear killed quickly in one swipe, may I also note these were average brown bears and not their tougher, stronger, and faster relatives the kodiak bear. Anything but a Elephant or a Rhino can be killed by this bear, and the hippo being about a tie as shear weight atvantage. May also note that Tigers only kill younger and hibernating bears, and use stealth to catch them offguard, because the tiger knows not to fight an adult head on, as he would surely die. These are all facts so go ahead and bow down to the real king, natures version of a tank.

8Hippopotamus

Mammal with strongest bite force and can run 30 miles per hour that is really fast and since it is very heavey the wehight is an advantage
Here is my way one hippo two elephant three rhino that's better
Brennan
The strongest animal in the world is the hippopotamus
More comments about Hippopotamus

9Rhinoceros Beetle

Come on guys rhinocerosbeetles are the strongest animals on earth not sharks. Kids you think sharks are strongest. NO SO WROONG rhinoceros beetles can carry 850 times there own body weight. So the strogest. Can you relly make them nuber 1 on the list? THEY ARE so STRONG LIKE CRASY.
No way, ants can lift larger weights and they have jaws that could tear through the armour.
For their body size, they are 85x stronger than ants. If a rhino beetle was as big as an elephant it could lift over 8 million pounds over its head. Just saying

10Grizzly Bear

The Grizzly Bear Is The strongest land animal apart from the elephant because of its size. the grizzly can break a moose's back with one swipe of its paw. In India they've been known to eat Siberian tigers they can kill gorillas, there me skin is so tough a knife will do no damage and they will smash a gorilla or tiger!

he posted it with facts, i think tiger deserve the strogest, i know tiger is stronger than lion
Re: Top 10 Strongest Land Animals by Penuelseun(m): 11:07pm On Sep 12, 2014
Psylas: he posted it with facts, i think tiger deserve the strogest, i know tiger is stronger than lion
when u say sumtin is strong, it does not mean ability to outmaneuver other animals with skills, rather it means ability to attack an opponent head-on. E.g ray mysterio can defeat big show only with acrobatic skills but he does not stand a chance if he does so head-on without his skills. So I am still saying the elephant is the strongest anytime anyday
Re: Top 10 Strongest Land Animals by adewaletb2(m): 2:25pm On Nov 13, 2014
I was expecting to hyenas on the list because hyenas has the strongest bite force ever. Its bite force is way stronger than †̥hα̲̅†̥ of lion because they have the biggest canine ever But the only disadvantage an hyena has is it size. The tiger is the biggest amongst the cat family I was expecting it to Bε the second strongest.
Re: Top 10 Strongest Land Animals by Nobody: 1:17pm On Feb 25, 2015
This is a very poorly written Article, Please do more research and watch animal fight videos on Nat geo wild.

First, The African elephant is the strongest land animal and weights an average of 7000kg while lions weigh average of 250kg. Lions r about 3 feet tall and elephants are about 10 feet tall.

28 lions will equal the weight of One African Elephant.

One basic thing is that herbivores are normally very strong, they are usually strongest in the animal kingdom.

Rhino, Hippo, water Buffalo, elephants, giraffes, can kill a fully grown tiger, lion or leopard wit One bite or One strike. Cats are not that strong
