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.

Both tigers and bears seem to have thumping paw swipes due to same reason. Even pound for pound they seem to be almost equally stronger due to same reason. That is why the fight was closer. The sloth bear being nasty fighter has proved himself here. The tiger will avoid unnecessary confrontation with bear as far as possible. But here the tiger seems to be dazzled by nastiness of sloth bear. That may be the reason it stopped attacking the bear. Also the bear was smart enough to avoid tigers bite to neck. Altogether it was awesome fight. Tfs Sanjay.
Edit: The tiger is almost same size as bear so it must be sub adult. He was tired easily that indicates low stamina of Bengal tigers while fighting.
