There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Ever wondered how the creatures of the earth rank up when it comes to how strong their jaws are? Now you’ll know which one you should run away from the fastest.

1.Piranha
PSI: unknown


Although its exact bite force hasn’t been measured, the piranha is able to exert a force of up to 30 times its own weight, which is unheard of in the animal kingdom.

2.Leopard
PSI: 300-310

3.Tiger shark
PSI: 325


4.African wild dog
PSI: 340



5.Cougar
PSI:350


6.Gray Wolf
PSI: 406



7.Mastiff
PSI:556



8.Great White Shark
PSI:669



9.African Lion
PSI: 691



10.Jaguar

11.Brown bear
PSI: 850


12.Kodiak bear
PSI: 930



13.Siberian tiger
PSI: 950



14.Snapping turtle

15.Bengal Tiger
PSI: 1,050

16.Hyena
PSI: 1,100



17.Polar bear
PSI:1,235



18.Grizzly bear
PSI: 1,250



19.Bull shark
PSI:1,250



20.Silverback gorilla
PSI: 1,300



21.Hippopotamus
PSI: 1,821



22.American alligator
2,125



23.Nile Crocodile
PSI: 5,000



24.Saltwater Crocodile
PSI: 7,700


Not only is it the largest living reptile, it’s also the largest terrestrial and riparian (wetland-dwelling) predator in existence. They can reach up to 22 feet and 4,400 lbs, so it’s not surprising that they have the strongest bite ever measured on a living animal.



25.Orca
PSI: 19,000+


The saltwater crocodile may have the strongest bite ever measured, but that might be because it’s been impossible to measure the killer whale’s bite force with accuracy. Based on captive orca incidents it’s estimated that their bite power could exceed 19,000 PSI.

So called Jaguar bite force is nearly equal to African lions and Bengal tigers bite force is the highest among CAT'S.  Lol
