Who is the King of Jungle? Tiger or Lion

[Kathin_Singh]

Bro, maybe my wildlife IQ needs polishing, but can you tell me in which country of the world tigers (and lions) face off against brown bears in their natural habitat?

Cheers, Doc

In India , Royal Bengal Tiger do kill Asiatic brown bears and Himalayan black bear apart from sloth bears.

In Siberia,Amur Tiger do kill brown bears. Now listen carefully.

Lions hunt in packs hence will get more wins. Even though tiger is stronger, being a lone hunter it has less chances.
Simply put lion has lot more allies as such it makes it the king of jungle.

 

[war&peace]

None of them is the jungle king even in the remotest sense of word King

 

[Super Falcon]

Tiger is more powerful they can be found in all weathers etc lakes but lions fear water and cannot live in cold weathers

Tiger= Tigris Tigris
lion= lion Tigris

One is made by nature for the Jungle and the other one for the Savanah, both are from the same family of Tigris and both are at the top of the food chain..All the videos we see are fabricated..since the environment plays a crucial role.. in real life they never meet.. since a tiger will be weak under heat in the Savanah and a lion will suffer from the humidity of the jungle..So, lion will win in the Savanah, while the tiger will win in the jungle.. but that is not how nature works.. they both have their roles in their specific environ..

What if we pit lion vs tiger ..One on one ?Who would win?

What about Dogs, hynas,Zebras ..Ants Mites or honey bees? By Sheer number of allies makes Mites as King of Jungle. Right?

As I have said in my post.. it will depend on the environ where you pit them in..

Good post buddy.

I said the same many pages back.

In such a fight, even the victor would rarely if ever walk away or survive.

Why? Ever seen Tiger killing tiger or lion killing lion? Do each and every time all of them die?

Good point.

I have NEVER seen a tiger or tiger fight. Have you? Please provide videos.

I have seen hundreds of lion on lion/s fights. These are for dominance and for mating rights to the lionesses of the pride.

Hence more often than not, the ruling lion overpowers the challenger and the challenger runs. The ruler does not press the issue because he's done his job. Maintained the position. And ensured his bloodline survives and propagates.

Things get serious as the lion gets older and/or instead of one challenger, two brothers come in. In such cases, very often, the lion who gets mauled limps away. Either becomes a maneater. Or dies of his wounds.

In the case of a lion and tiger, it would not be a fight to drive away, because I'm guessing they are so different that they are not interested in cross mating. It would usually be trespassing or coming upon each other suddenly or territorial dominance.

In such cases the fight would usually be to the death.

Just my 2 bits from Animal Planet etc. I'm no expert and I've learned a lot on this thread, like others before it.

Cheers, Doc

Lion and Tiger might be stronger but wolf don't perform in circus so wolf is King of the jungle

Oh come on dear! Cut the crap.These Wolf's are our greatest slave. Dogs and Wolfs are one and same thing. They are biologically same species(canis lupus)

Those Wolfs which were not so afraid of Humans are our dog.

I already posted a video here and the lion won.

 

[Kathin_Singh]

Tigers are better hunters and Lion's have a mane advantage which prevents tigers from snapping their neck.
I saw couple of their fights usually the tiger is dominating the fight but in this the lion wins

I'd also like to point out that lionesses do all the hunting and male lion hogs all the food for himself. What a king
Tigers hunt alone and let their cubs feast first and then take turns

Do you know story behind this video? May be not .

Let me tell you. This video is from India. Princes and kings used to import African Lion to pit them against Tiger. Every time tiger kills their costly import. That is why they injure the tiger to make level playing field.

Come to the video ,First it is a Tigress and that too injured on her left ribbs near her hind legs.

Please look the unedited version same video. Lion can not even injure a Tigress let alone kill although she was tired in the end.
