Sometimes I think you want to discuss things, others that you're intentionally trolling everyone. And I'm leaning towards the latter because you don't seem to listen to the warnings the mods give to you. You want to post facts? Do it. But leave the sarcasm aside, because it creates problems and when others respond in kind you won't like it, and I'll remember who started it initially.

Considering Deinonychus's thin and not-so-muscled skull, the bite estimates should be much lower.

RE: The strongest bites in the animal kingdom - Pckts - 06-27-2017 Jaguar's jaw muscles used to generate power a long with their skulls are much smaller which means they aren't able to generate the same power as the big boys, but they do have the highest lb for lb bite force of any big cat. "Relative to weight, it’s the jaguar. Recent research by Adam Hartstone-Rose and colleagues at the University of South Carolina, who compared the bite forces of nine different cat species, reveals that jaguars have three-quarters the bite force of tigers. However, given that jaguars are considerably smaller (the body mass of the individual in the study was only half that of the tiger), relatively speaking their bite is stronger. “If you had to choose, you’d want to be bitten by a jaguar, not a lion or a tiger. But pound for pound, jaguars pack a stronger punch,” says Adam. “The strength of the jaguar’s bite is due to the arrangement of its jaw muscles, which, relative to weight, are slightly stronger than those of other cats. In addition – also relative to weight – its jaws are slightly shorter, which increases the leverage for biting.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar.22518/full RE: The strongest bites in the animal kingdom - epaiva - 06-27-2017 (06-27-2017, 01:42 AM)Pckts Wrote: Jaguar's jaw muscles used to generate power a long with their skulls are much smaller which means they aren't able to generate the same power as the big boys, but they do have the highest lb for lb bite force of any big cat. It would be great to see measurements of bite force of the biggest Jaguars from Pantanal in Brazil and from the Venezuelan Llanos.

Absolutely, I'd also love to see skulls from Tigers in Kanha and Kaziranga measured and Lions from Ngorongoro as well.

As per the study the bite force of the tiger involves several subspecies. If we were to consider only the bigger subspecies Bengals and Siberians. I would presume the biteforce results would be higher.

I remember seing this on a random website that didn't have anything scientific. Regardless is psi even a good measurement for that? It's a measure of pressure, force is measured in newton.(04-02-2017, 10:06 PM)Pantherinae Wrote: @ RE: The strongest bites in the animal kingdom - parvez - 11-27-2017 When i went to kaziranga, one of the guards of the hotels there told me that once a single horned rhino attacked a forest guard. He bite the forest guard in such a way that his skull was broken and the blood oozed out as if the skin has been blasted and the blood oozed with speed. One must only imagine the bite force of one horned rhino which if measured i think surely will be one among the top 5 IMO.
