@Vinay :

No one real blow of paw swaped. The tiger stands on his hind legs just on defensive position, - if the lion continues that will be able to become serious, thus stop ! -, but that's all,  end of game. Reply

1. Asserting dominance is different from picking a fight.

2. There's nothing to analyse. Didn't look like there was body contact. It was a mock-charge.

Although from chasing one tiger to charging another one larger than him, this white male seemed to be pretty confident of himself, i don't quite agree with @sanjay either...

That no dominance. Look how relaxed the other 3 are. All of it looked way to playful! Reply

I am not talking in global scope... I am talking in that particular scope.. In that particular moment definitely Lion is in command..
And Vinay, don't be fanboy of any one, Try to see the things from nature perspective.
Sometime a member of group become violent and they control the situation, at that time no one wants to mess with them... either its lion, a tiger or your younger brother... Reply

Lions mainly attack first to dominate but Tiger as superior cat slapped once and lion ran-away in lightning speed ...Just pause and see the video. Reply
