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.

Grizzly bears have a bite-force of over 8,000,000 pascals, enough to crush a bowling ball.

The grizzly bear has the strongest bite out of all bears the grizzly bear it has a whopping 1250 psi and the polar bear has 1235. 
 
*According to post #1, a gorilla has a stronger bite than a hyena. 
*Also... post #1 gives a Brown bear 85 PSI, Kodiak bear 930 PSI, and the grizzly and polar bear the same as the info I found. Interesting; Kodiak, brown, and grizzly are all the same species, with size differences. The Lion is given 691 PSI and the Tiger 950 PSI - doesn't seem quite right as the bite-force of the big cats is greater than that of a grizzly - am I right?
