Gadafii: If hyenas attack in group against a lion, the lion flees for his life and the kill is stolen by the hyenas. They dare not attack with just two lions. 1 Like |

Elliotwaveforec:an adult spotted hyena wil stand his ground with an alpha lion, one on one, jaw to jaw. with a jaw force capable of breaking bones, heart twice that of a lion, a hyena cant easily be ruffled by a single lion...those hyenas are the bandits of the jungle. aside games, the other cat i know a lion can rough handle is the cheetah 1 Like |

Gadafii:thats true, in nat geo channel, hyena always steels from lion. Tigers normally calculate their attack, movement and accuracy |

Nicklaus619:Tiger and Lion are like the US and Russia, one is slightly powerful than the other but the are both aware that the damages they are capable of doing to each other in event of confrontation would far overshadow any concept of victory, thus they very conscious of their respective path. 3 Likes |

Gadafii: There is no way on earth one hyena can steal food from any lion either male or female. They can only do that as a pack and even at that they won't dare such around a pack of Lioness with just 1 lion. |

Veggieseedies: As a regular viewer of natgeowild, Tiger(s) never a match for Lion(s), the lion will even climb the tree to drag tigers kill from it. Lions win the fight with any other cat family except two hyenas. Leoparda r best climbers so lions can't drag for leopards kill, cuz they climb far 1 Like |

goldony: How would a lion drag the kill of a Tiger.. they dont exist in the same habitat in nature. Futher more Tigers are not tree animals.. I think you mean leopards.. An experimented fight has been done before and the Tiger always wins.. is not even fair to put them on the same box. Tigers are lone rangers, the learn to survive on their own. While lions depend on the pride to exist. Tigers are majorly found in East Asia, where Africa savannah plans are the natural habitat for lions... 1 Like |

Tigers are stronger than Lions, but the only advantage Lions have is that they go in pack while Tigers goes in single. |

Nice thread. It is well know that hippos have bad temper and very brutal in their fight. I have never seen a lion attack a group of wilder beast, they seldom hunt alone, the tigers on the other hand, are know to hunt alone, even dangerous animals are part of their menu. I have seen a single tiger stand off against a herd of wild gaurs. Tigers are efficient killing machines and usually avoid confrontations but when they do fight, they fight like demons. Tigers are more powerful, intelligent, more equipped with razor like retractable claws and has a longer canine than the lions. Lions can not stand on their two back hinds when fighting whereas tigers can stand and swipe with a powerful swipe with enough force to break the head of a cow. Even the small specie of tigers, the sumatran tigers are more agile and faster than its cousin. There are cases of lions winning a fight against a tiger and most of those times it was an immature tiger or the conditions were rigged against the tiger There was a case of a sumatran tiger called Chester that fought and warded off seven mature male african lions. The tiger was so fast that even the spectators could hardly keep up with its speed the lions had to flee for their dear lives. The biggest tiger is the Siberian tiger which is way above an African lion, we can only compare the African lion with the Bengal tiger but unfortunately the Bengal tiger still beat the African lion hands down. I have to admit the lion looks more kingly and domineering, the lion is a better fight but the tiger is a better killer and so the tiger avoids confrontations with fellow tigers. The lion has protective mane that will probably save his neck from being severed which the tiger lack and above all the lion has his packs which a tiger doesn't. So in a fight a number of factors come into play, such as the weight, health and temperament of the individual animals. While the lions are very temperamental and rarely backs down when it comes to fight combine with the fact that lions can withstand more injuries, since from day one, lions fight, they fight for practically everything, while a tiger rarely fight since they avoid each other, this will give the lion an advantage in a prolonged fight. The tiger on the other hand, usually avoids fight due to the risk involved, for example an injured tiger will likely die of hunger since it hunts alone while the lion has his pride to hunt for him, but when things become serious and tiger has no where to run to, he usually will fight and they fight like demons, tiger usually will want to kill his opponent and move on but a lion may just want to bully his opponent into submission and this is to the advantage to the tiger and even if the lion wants to kill the tiger. Tiger are calculative and usually retreat when their aim is not achieved but the lion really backs down for a smaller tiger, the lion may own him but for a tiger equal or bigger than a lion, the tiger will maul him to death. In real life over 80% fights between the tiger and the lion ended with the lion mauled to death. In fact there was an incident at a certain zoo where a tiger escaped from its cage and attacked a full grown lion, while the lion's mane protected his neck region from being severed by the single swipe of the tiger but its stomach was not so lucky as it was ripped open living the lion in the pool of his own blood. Tigers are very dangerous and can be unpredictable. Meanwhile, instead of pitting this exotic and wonderful animals against each other humans should focus on saving them from going into extinction as the greatest threat against this animals are poachers and illegal hunters. |

Gadafii: Post the link here. A lone hyena chasing away a lion, not even a lioness which is also very impossible. |

goldony: Not completely true You mean the slander looking, fast Cheetah They are lightweights while Tigers are heavyweights and cannot be dragged up by any cat family Within seconds the lion drops the Cheetah. Lions doesn't climb |
