We've known accounts of adult male leopards killing fully-grown elands in Africa, but that is a rare case. Tigers, on the other hand, seem to overwhelmingly go for the challenge-- the largest prey possible. Maybe there are biological differences in the choosing of prey between big cats. RE: Tiger Predation - Spalea - 07-22-2017 @Polar : About #1015 and #1016: yes, agree with what you say and I would add that, among the common preys between tiger, leopard and dhole i.e. chitals, sambars and wild pigs, the tiger kills almost exclusively the adult males (of chitals, sambars and wild pigs). Whatever the quoted prey, gaur included, the tiger prefers the adult male (I don't take into account the sloth bear).
