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.

Why do you continue to say "size parity" when they are physical built in completely different ways.
A bear and tiger at the same "size" would mean a tiger is shorter since bears are not as long. In turn meaning the tiger is not full grown. 2ndly, bears are larger animals, they have more fat and they are larger in general. But once again, at the same weight their is no way to know which is stronger.
"Flexibility"- if I am going to describe flexibility it has nothing to do with power, it allows a cat to stretch in different directions quickly or contort its body in awkward angles. Like a person doing the splits, but it has nothing to do with power. When a tiger leaps, its kinetic energy that begins with its powerful rear section. The explosion that starts there ends with the leap and is only capable because of the power generated to do so.
So, once again, I am in no way saying a tiger is stronger than a bear, but that is becasue a bear is larger. Point blank....
A tiger at 500lbs and a bear at 500lbs there is no way to say who is stronger. I would even lean towards a tiger/Big Cat because of their morphology & muscle distribution, but that is also speculative.
"It appears that for you the bear is stronger than anything, give it a rest." [img]images/smilies/dodgy.gif[/img]
(You see how that works, no need to go there bear. I am being respectful and giving you valid reasoning)
Offer up actual meaningful evidence and you wont need to say crap like that. ^^
