Tigers don't like taking risks and they are not sociable. They mostly feed on injured or sick animals.

Lions on the other hand can take down any animal no matter the size. They are fearless and they have stronger bones than tigers even though tigers weigh more.

Lions bully tigers alot when confined together. So it's not by chance they got the title "King of all Beast".
Pound for pound, a tiger will most likely take out a lion. Lions get more success because they are social animals and relay on team effort( doesn't mean they are not badass too).
Tigers are more solitary and more of stalkers . its false that they only eat weak and sick animals. There are stories of tigers taking away men in their farms. There are instances of jaguars taking on crocs.
In the end, its just two animals living in different terrains and climes

That means you don't really know Tigers.
They are ferocious, have the longest canine in the cat family, biggest of the cat family, they hardly forgive, and only the Orca(killer whale) tops it in the Apex predator list.
You should be more scared of a Tiger, they kill anything anyhow. They kill even when they are not hungry (unlike Lions), a Tiger will hunt an adult Croc, a gaur, a bison, a buffalo all on it's own, and that takes a full pride of Lion to do.
That animal has no competition, quiet but brutal. In India, it is even known as the king of the jungle, truly it lives in the jungle. The Lion on the other hand lives in the savanna

Gbam.
Though the Lions may have an edge cos they're more numerous unlike the Tigers that are solitary cats.
Besides Tigers adapt more on a forest than savannah cos that's its natural habitat

Most likely, but 90% of the time a Lion would take out any Tiger one on one(Siberian or Bengal). It happens all the time.

Try stalking a prey on an open plain savanna, see how easy it is.

Take it or leave it. The Lion is the King of both the Jungle and all animals from the beginning of time. It's a proven fact. Your opinion doesn't change that.

Of those animals, 3 are top of the chain.


1. Badass Badger.
2. Badass Tiger
3. And introducing the animal with the most successful kills of the animal kingdom (leave MAN out) the AFRICAN BUSH DOGS.

Hippos will kill you for daring to wake up before it
Rhinos will kill you for even sleeping at all.
Elephants just don`t care. They will stump all of you to death.

But in the world of hunting and kills, Badger, Tigers and Bush dogs pretty much settle it.
Forget all the stories you hear of lions, they are inferior to their Asian feline superior, the Tiger, especially the Siberian/AMUR tigers.

In all you do, do not mess with MAN. He may be small and physically weak, he`ll nuke all you to death.

Man is the ultimate predator.

There are jaguars with longer canines than Lions and Tigers. Dentition has nothing to do with strength of the cat.

Tigers are silent hunters, yes but that has to do more with its habitat.

A Lion would easily survive in a tiger's habitat but no tiger can survive in a lion's habit.

Lions have more competitors to deal with than Tigers.
Lions have longer and Thicker bones.
Tigers have more muscle mass.
It's tougher to survive on the savannahs than on the grasslands, rain forests.
The savannahs of Africa is the home of some of the most dangerous and largest animals on the planet.


I have watched hundreds of documentaries of Lions bullying Tigers, they are usually the aggressors.

Bobo, shut up.

Lions do not even live in the jungle. Tigers do.
Lions dwell in plains, Savannahs and grassland.

Go back to several sources, past and present and learn. Lions are just inferior to tigers. period.

At a zoo, a tiger was once provoked. He cut through his barrier, went to the lion enclosure and killed the full grown lions in there and strolled back to its cage.
Body weight, body muscle mass, the claws, bite size and more. the tiger is built for the kill.

See the tiger`s tongue for example. The tongue is made of spikes called papillae, Each time they lick a kill, the spike skins the animal flest down to the bones.

Bobo, leave wetin you no know.

The Asian Tigers bear that name for a reason

I am not disputing who is king. A case where 3 or 4 person gang up to take down someone or where one person does the job, who is more badass?.
While there are instances of lions killing tigers there are also lots of examples of tigers doing same to lions.

If i should give an award, it should go to the tiger, for being an efficient killing machine and doing it all alone.

Bullying? Yes. Lions have their kits and kins to fall back on when they are injured but a tiger is a loner, so he is wary in picking up a fight to avoid sustaining needless injury and going hungry. A lion can so afford to be aggressive
It is more harder to hunt in a forest than in a Savannah. Try chasing a prey in a forest and see how difficult it is to achieve full burst of speed to take up your prey.
The Savannah is a perfect terrain for a lion. Tall grasses to hide in and open expanse of land to run on and catch your prey. A lion will like starve in a jungle except it adjusts its hunting pattern.
You said the tooth has no role to play? Lol. Ask the jaguar. It has the biggest bite force, even more than a hyena. Its bites can pierced and crack skulls.with such terrible bite, death comes quickly, than the strangulation method employed by lions, waiting for the animal to suffocate to death. The jaguar is smaller than a tiger but hunts crocs and alligators.

That's bcus they have to deal with more larger and dangerous preys unlike tigers that mostly hunt for sick/old or dying livestocks, bisons, gaurs. Those are least aggressive preys.

Lions are the real dare devils, fearless predators. Brute strength. It's no surprise why they are called King and top of the food chain.

Well if you think you know better than wildlife experts you can write them on why you think Tigers should be king of the jungle.

I'm talking of Lions and Tigers in captivity. Not a pride of Lions.

Both Lions and Tigers have the same size of canine. But some have it longer than the others, just like in humans. Tigers also kill by strangulation.

I'm yet to see a group of Tigers take down a full sized Elephant.

You can argue all you want, doesn't change anything.

Did he say lions bully tigers?
Where? Their paths don`t cross easily. Asian lions are indeed very few and African tiger are fewer, by far.
But when their paths cross, the tamer animal is the lion.

By size, dem no be mate. Tiger are 200kgs bigger than lions. Not just 200kgs of fat o. Muscle, raw muscle.

I understand the biblical background to the superiority of the lion. The writers of the Holy script were introduced to the regal King lion. they had no world view (experience) of the Tiger.

For everything that a lion, be sure, the Tiger is weighted higher.

Did you know that the roar of the tiger is more awe-inspiring than a lion? The number numbs it opponent into submission, mystically. The lion`s roar is louder though.

You need to get back to school kid. When i was your age and still fascinated by wildlife, i knew better.

An Average African Lion weighs roughly 260kg, A Siberian Tiger 300kg

In my opinion Tigers are overfed Lions. Lions get to share their kill with the pride and go hungry most of the time. But Tigers have the whole kill to themselves.

But when fed with the same amount of calories in captivity, they weigh the same.

Below are photos of Lions and Tigers of same sex in captivity. Which one looks bigger?

If I tell u lion doesn't live in the jungle but grassland u will deny it
If I tell u the bite force of a tiger is almost double of a lion u will deny it
The tiger is the biggest and strongest of the cat family
What makes the tiger more dangerous is that when it is fighting it uses it two frontal leg to attack when fighting while lion use 1
The tiger is a symbol of strength in some culture
Tiger are so strong to the extent that it's can take and kill a full grown polar bear
Go and check the animals tiger hunt for food and the ones lion hunt for food
A tiger hunt alone while lion hunt in pride as a team
Lion can't take down a crocodile all alone while tiger and jaguar are expert in that field
Go and check the size of a lion and a tiger
Size matters in the wild
Please read extensively before arguing
This people argued based on biological fact, research conducted by expert but u argued based on YouTube video
Any animal can be killed in the wild
That is why they are called wild animals
They are always looking out to kill or be killed
