About #1853: I'm agree with you. I only wanted to show that interaction between Ussuri brown bear and tigers aren't one-sided interaction. But OK. I know that wikipedia sources can seem old fashioned.

Agree with you too, with numbers we can say all the things that we want.

I think, that I have never claimed it to be one sided, but if someone has done that, then I disagree. Interaction between these animals is naturally interesting, but I have said all the time as my opinion (at least I think so), that there is kind of balance between these animals. More dead bears, but reasons for that, when looking closer, are no surprises. Tiger is more active hunter and also hunts 24/7/365. Bear hunts mostly on spring time and early summer, after that occasionally and when hibernating only dreaming of a big moose etc.... I would be surprised only if statistics would be in another way. 

Lately no new information, just time to time same old cases discussed again and again. And again. Well, of course predators are interesting, it is not as exciting to discuss how much grass an antelope can eat in a year. But maybe we get new information some day. Reply
