[Panther]

Here's Ullas Karanth's (Considered by many as the worlds top leading tiger expert) take on this subject from his book:

As you can clearly see, even female tigers easily dominate and directly usurp kills from Dhole packs, even killing some of them in the process.

Kenneth Anderson's account is not verified and is disputed by the likes of Karanth, who clearly doesn't believe such nonsense.

Here's one of the greatest biologists of all time, V.Mazak's take on this subject too:

"Rarely bears, wild pigs, gaurs, or other large ungulates can mortally wound a tiger"...

"Nonetheless, it seems that wild dogs could kill only ill or otherwise weakened tigers"...

Here's another legit source, stating: "One has to take Anderson on faith as there are no verified stories of dholes actually killing a tiger, and such tales may be more legend than reality. According to Jenks, the much more common outcome is likely death by tiger"...

And also stating: "However, there are also records of direct competition... this include cases where dholes have been killed by tigers and attacked by leopards, indicating both larger carnivores may be behaviourally dominant over dholes.”...
