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.

I think you have great symptoms of misunderstanding the things. I also think you does not understand the biologist and researcher when they say tiger is powerful cat.
A researcher or biologist never say tiger is more powerful than Lion or Bear, they talk a relative discussion and that relation is with the eco system in which tiger lives, not the hypothetical scenario of Lion Vs Tiger or Tiger VS Bear.
When a biologist say tiger is strong cat, that mean he is compared to his living terrain not with A wild male lion living in Africa or Big male brown bear living in North America or Siberia. Off course there are reports of Wild Tiger and Wild Bear interaction from Russia and India but that has shown both have dominated each other, go an read the peter's tiger extinction thread.
The unfortunate thing with this is that a fan like you (Who always dream about VS scenario) start taking it as his animal supremacy over other, So actually, you guys read and follow only those story (and extract the portion of content) where the power and strength of your favorite animal has been mentioned. The internet is full of stories and resource which explain the power of an animal, all you have to do is, pick your favorite animal and start cherry picking the story that satisfy your childish brain of vs debate.
Irony is that you are not the only one, from AVA days we have dealt with many and what is funny you know, many of us (WildFact member) were used to be like that, With time and willing to study about other animals, changed their perspective. They didn't stop to applaud their favorite animal but they started respecting and understating other animals. It is also true that many of them doesn't changed and still remained same, by imposing their view on others about the supremacy of their favorite animal.
We don't care that and they went to other forum (You know what I mean). I suggest you to join them Or YouTube, becasue there You will get equivalent counter part who are ready with their crappy data and hypothetical theory to blow you.
The story is that, stop misinterpreting the scientist and researcher, grab their border term not the particular one which you want. If we talk about lion strength, they have also impressive record of killing and showing their strength.
NOW let me show you something:
I AM BEHAVING LIKE LION FAN:
1. Single male lion has chased away the entire clan of Hyena (Me from inside,... Huh.. tiger can not, they do not face the ferocious clan of hyena... huh..)
2. Lion pride (there is documentary) kills large African elephant regularly (Me from inside.... Tiger does not face that big elephant, the Asian elephant is small, also they kill calf or sick animal, also there is no full video where tiger is killing elephant, while lion have)
3. Lion live in open plain which is much more harder for a successfully hunt, becasue there is less thing to hide like jungle
4. Lion face the cape buffalo, one of the most aggressive herd of brute force (Tiger don't , Gaur and Water buffalo are not that agressive.. I hate tiger.. Huh..)
5. Lion fight more and know more fight.. they face tough competition and hence evolved as better fighter (.. Tiger are stupid cat they don't fight that intense,..like a house cat..)
I AM BEHAVING LIKE TIGER FAN:
1. Tiger are bigger in size (Lion are smaller... so that they can not stand a chance)
2. Tiger kills Gaur and water buffalo and they do it single (Lion need pride to bring down... they afraid to attack big animal..)
3. Tiger chase and kill elephant (Lion can not...)
4. Tiger kill bear... (I think a fanatic may better explanation to degrade lion here.. I am out of imagination.. sorry.. )
5. Tiger lives in jungle which is more tough to hunt and hence they are better (No logic here...)
I AM BEHAVING LIKE BEAR FAN:
1. Bear are brute force and they can stop anything single handle ( He s HULK man,....... )
2. Big bear have killed tigers many time ( A fanatic will also add the they have killed lion as well many time... you know your mind when you become fanatic..)
3. Bear have killed whale ( You know the largest living creature of earth.... O) )
4. Bear kills Moose and Bison very easily.. so they are very capable hunter as well.
5. ......................... ( I can not recall.. Please any of you add here ...?)
So.. point is.. there are much better fanatic than me and you will get much more things...
One more time...
STOP COMPARING TIGERS WITH LION OR BEAR ..
