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.

Are Tigers 'Brainier' Than Lions?

Analysis in fighting is once again the opionion of one man not fact like the tiger having 16% larger brain volume. 
2nd, fighting style isn't intelligence, its preference. It's like saying Fedor is smarter than Conor Mcgregor because fedor is stoic before a fight and mcgregor is amped up.
Once again, the Roy horn quote has nothing to do with intelligence and everything to do with a personality trait. Antler says the tiger is smarter, whenever he compares them, the tiger is always analyzing and scanning for opportunities, it's thinking while the lion isn't. Many trainers also talk about the fact that's Tigers are harder to read than lions or being more analytical. Even Beatty talks about two different tigers that studied the cage and managed to escape in a feat of intelligence that caught him off guard.

When comparing first hand accounts on intelligence you'll see more favoring the tiger, but intelligence is subjective, you can use examples for for either and say that proves one is smarter. At the end of the day, comparably sized cats should mean comparably sized brain mass, but it doesn't. Just like homosapians have the largest brain volume compared to other hominids while coinciding with being recognized as the most intelligent.
