The lion received a huge clawing in its face and the tiger had one of its leg mauled, both received medical treatment. Reading what the owner said in TikTok both cats usually play with each other since they have been together since birth but this time it was different and something triggered in them a sense of aggression that led to the fight.

Pity that so serious fight in captivity. Also clearly shows how close call these two biggest cats are when they really go for it. Some people like to argue which one is stronger, obviously both are strong enough to kill each others.

 Still even though there are always cuts, when they fight, broken leg is brutal. In wild it would be same as dead tiger. Anyway hopefully these two won´t be kept together anymore :/

They're both youngsters and the Tiger didn't require surgery so I'm sure both could heal on their own.

I don´t believe that broken leg is ok without help. In wild it would be death sentence. In captivity it of course can be healed.

We cannot compare a broken leg with a face pawed... A broken leg in wild implies a death sentence, especially for a solitary animal like the tiger. As concerns the "faces pawed with a deep cut" for lions and tiger in wild, thank to the thread titled "Battles scarred" ( https://wildfact.com/forum/topic-battle-scarred ), we know they are very common events during the felid's life.
