When you see both in the wild, there is no cuteness about them though, both have a serious and dangerous look, Tigers have a much more uneasy feeling, you can't take your eyes off of them because you feel their unpredictable nature, Lions have an uninterested confidence, you forget that you're looking at a Killing machine and get caught up in their easy going nature. Both can turn in the drop of a hat but they present it in very different ways.

The Amur tiger got the roundest feature overall, since their muzzle is proportionally the broadest of all big cats.

BTW, the male lion's appearance is in line with their nature; it is a dangerous powerful beast with a rough look.

However, the Amur tiger's appearance can be deceptive to their nature; it is a dangerous powerful beast with a somewhat cute and housecat look.

I also think the Amur tiger is cuter with a more housecat appearance than the Bengal tiger due its rounder facial structure and fluffy coat, but they are just equally as lethal and dangerous.

That's why many people also underestimate the potential lethality of the giant panda.

The flip side is the Sumatran Tiger, some argue it's possibly the most intimidating looking cat of them all and yet it still possesses the same round features. Reply
