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.

From GrizzlyClaws... Brown Bears ( Info, Pics and Videos ) post #44:
True, especially with the brown bear as the polar bear's fangs are big cat-ized which evolved to become longer and sharper, a perfect attribute as a pure predatory animal.
The brown bear fangs are really suitable for brawling and struggling. Reply

The Brown bears are extremely efficient fast biters, whereas the big cats are killing biters.
The Brown bears can constantly bite fast, unlikely the big cats' killing bite method, they have developed another technique to strip their preys alive.
Look how gruesome and ogre-ish from that killing technique, the poor moose has almost been skinned alive. It is by far more painful to be eating alive by a Brown bear than the instant killing from a big cat.

I do think the killing of larger prey is far more brutal though, watching lions eat buffalo alive and a tiger lick and drink the blood of the prey it's immobilized is pretty gruesome as well.
Both can be brutal killers when they have to.

Both Amur and Bengal have massive canine root, whereas the lion as a pride animal, their canine root wasn't fully developed like that of the tiger.
