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.

Lions and tigers have similar size and musculature. Its no stretch to conclude their bite force is also similar. The skull size and muscles around them are not
very different. Biology 101. I've read both are around 1000 psi. Its difficult, of course, to get an accurate gauge on maximum bite force, due to the fact the subject
may or may not be giving its best effort. Analysis of skull structure and the muscles associated with biting can give an accurate reading for potential bite force.
