Tiger Vs Lion

Now this one I can't decide, imagine two of these bump into to each other, Tigers are marginally bigger but nothing much of an advantage where as some male lions can be huge also....

One on one it would have to be the tiger. Much bigger and stronger. I saw a program once where a tiger firstly went into a river and took prey from the jaws of a crocodile and secondly spotted a leopard and proceeded to kill and eat it. Where would they stand if one of them bumped into a polar bear?

Ok I think the Tiger would win one on one, but in the Savanah teh Lion would probably win, however if there is water the Lion has no chance!!!

Have you ever seen a Liger....its a cross breed between a Lion and a Tiger...they grow to a massive size as the growth inhibitors dont work when the breeds are crossed..however they cant produce offspring kinda like the mule syndrome, by the way Id say a tiger would win over a lion.

I think they'd probably sniff each other's butts, decide they weren't in competition for the same mates then amble off in search of something to shag, or if they'd done that earlier, just go to sleep in the sun.

Liger btw:

Female lions carry the growth inhibitors, but male tigers do. A liger has lion father /tiger mother.

i heard once on the radio a debate on who would win between 40 'well trained' midgets and a lion, now thats a toughie..

Although lions and tigers are very similar, lions are faster, stronger, in some respects, and better hunters.

Lol. And then superman would whip him. Thats it then. Let all species fight it out and watch superman come in and kick all their asses.

Pick your subspecies first - are we talking the Amur tiger, which is the largest of the big cats, or the Sumatran tiger, which is the smallest of the tiger subspecies?

What of the lions - North African, South African or desert species? Sizes vary hugely across the range.

The outcome of any encounter would vary depending on which of each cats subspecies you were pitting against each other.

Funsterdelux · 02-02-2006 05:11PM

the tiger would win because he/she woulod have to, coz they are more rare thus would have to keep the species going

Me versus a kitten is also hypothetical but the facts remain the same.

That kitten would kill me with cuteness.

toffeapple · 02-02-2006 05:29PM

There is no debate in this one.

1. tiger is bigger and more powerful

2. tiger is way more agile. can climb trees. has a huge leap.

3. male tigers hunt and are faster.

4. they have a more powerful bite force proven by discovery channel.

5. bigger teeth

6. it was laready decided on that programm on discovery

only thing Male lion has goin for it is that it is more used to battles defending its territory..tigers tend to avoid each other...if they can even find each other cos theres fack all left

Binomate · 02-02-2006 05:33PM

A tiger can camoflash into things and leap onto a lions back when it's least expected. I say a tiger.

Chuck Norris could round kick both the tiger and the lion...it would be done and dusted then eh??!!

Oh and superman does have another weakness other than kryptonite...its known as Chucktonite!!!

ferdi · 02-02-2006 05:45PM

or a Liger for that matter!

DaBreno · 02-02-2006 05:48PM

Superman sleeps in Chuck Norris pyjamas.

Tigers are solitary hunters, lions are pack. Although hypothetical, the tiger would probably have more stomach for a one to one battle.

Doesn't the male lion sleep for 20 hours a day while the females hunt. His job is to defend the pride and shag the females. (I really want to be a lion)

Don't know if any of you subscribe to National Geographic magazine, but a few months ago there were some amazing photos, taken from the back of an elephant, of an angry tigress attacking *the elephant* and the riders on its back! Yes, a tiger attacking an elephant! Amazing photos, if anyone can locate them online. I gotta go with tiger over lion here.

Just watched that video, tiger wins that fight from what I saw, it seemed far more agressive, the lion was just about defending itself. It was against a female lion though, maybe the male would put up a better fight?
