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.

Some give the polar bear a very strong bite-force while others a very low bite-force. Two extremes. According to this testing, if I'm understanding correctly, the polar bear has a more powerful bite-force than a brown bear of similar size.

Actually in relative strength brown bear has better result in this. But what comes to bite forces, when I have seen some videos about testing, those tests have always looked like to be difficult ones and hard to know how reliable.

One thing is for instance crocodile. It is always praised how strong bite it has, but it never looks like to it if jaws are wide open. Maybe it is strong when jaws are almost shut, but for instance when looking at footage, it doesn´t just bite of limbs. But when it gets a good bite and starts to roll over in water, there are elements to cause severe injuries and also tear off limbs.

I haven´t looked this study too closely, just noticed it and linked it here for people to see if there are someones not seeing it before. But this looks like to be more professional, than those seen in many documentaries done by "WHOA scientists".... I mean those hosts of documentaries unable to hold screaming all the time, when seeing a wild bee....
