RE: Bear and bigcats anatomy - parvez - 12-13-2016 Here is the source, http://neurosoma.com/primate-muscles-either-fast-twitch-or-slow-twitch/ RE: Bear and bigcats anatomy - brotherbear - 01-14-2017 I would love to see this topic, "Bear and Big Cat anatomy" discussed in a more... shall we say educational level. I am interested in a serious discussion on comparing the grizzly to the tiger in terms of physical attributes. I have read from many sources, all from blog sites such as this one, that a big cat is stronger than a bear in terms of pulling whereas a bear is stronger in terms of pushing. Now, in pulling strength this could mean one of two things. One: for untold millions of years, big cats have used their retractable sharply-curved claws to hold and to pull down heavy struggling prey animals; such as buffalo. Evolution then has provided the big cats with strong pulling muscles in their arms and shoulders. Two: can a tiger drag a heavier carcass than a grizzly or a polar bear? There is probably no way of proving such a statement, and both the big cats and the bears are backed by many eye-witness accounts of unbelievable events. Anatomically which appears to be the stronger in regards to pulling a ton or more dead-weight? I'm not here to argue but to learn; and hopefully will not ignite a barrage of fandom replies. RE: Bear and bigcats anatomy - brotherbear - 01-14-2017 Parvez, post #127 - excellent information. Post #106, you state that the brain of a grizzly is about the size of a human thumb - the olfactory portion of his brain is that size. ![]() RE: Bear and bigcats anatomy - brotherbear - 01-15-2017 Some might find this interesting: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/big-cats-artist-anatomy-models#/ RE: Bear and bigcats anatomy - P.T.Sondaica - 06-18-2017 (11-27-2016, 08:52 PM)brotherbear Wrote: Parvez says: The bears must have got intimidated by the big cats. They understood that they cannot continue being carnivores (as cats have started to be dominant) or being scavengers of other's kills.

I think yes RE: Bear and bigcats anatomy - parvez - 06-20-2017 This guy brother bear was begging not to enlighten everyone regarding bears and now someone comes and supports his defensive claims for bears. This is bit irking.
