Very strange logic. If we proceed from this logic, none of the cases of a bear killing a tiger or killing a bear by a tiger registered by researchers can not be taken into account, because probably almost 99.99% of all cases of their relationship that ended in the death of one of them were registered based on the results of studies of the remains of a deceased animal, the place of death, studying the contents of the stomachs, etc. I do not think that there is a person on our planet who was lucky enough to witness the interaction of a male amur tiger and a male ussuri brown bear.
Your logic calls into question not just the conclusions of Batalov, you question one of the basic scientific methods of study.

Quote:The case has alot of discrepancies. And once again, that account is not a scientific article, meaning its not part of any predation study. Also, Ochakarik supposedly killed Chlamid sometime in October 2017, but a mod on this forum "Shadow"  had contact with Batalov and told him that Chlamid was las seen in early winter 2018, you can read this here, thread "big cat and bear tale" reply #366:

I dont know whats going on, maybe its technical issues but i dont see screenshot of conversatio Shadow with Batalov. Can you send me picture?

Quote:Too many discrepancies and questions, someone should try to contact Batalov himself.

But how can you contact Batalov? Representatives of the Amur Tiger Center refused to give me Batalovs phone number, and there seems to be no other way to contact him Reply
