Nice piece of work. But believe it or not, Lion is still the king of most terrestrial habitat... Lion vs Tiger one on one in the 'so called jungle', lion will still win. Staying in the Savannah/grassland doesn't make it less of a king in a jungle if it enters there. Again, lions might really seem lazy but the intensity and power of their strength and bravery over their prey and competitors in time of action are second to none. Lion is still Lion forget...

Ishilove:Thats not accurate ,male lions have a mane,and that does not help with active camouflaging,this favours the females ,but once the females engage a powerful prey lets say a male savanna buffalo,or giraffes ,basically any thing too strong for the female lioness to take down he uses his raw power to bring it down ..PS even with the mane Lil s have been known to hunt thou its not often... 1 Like |

Elijahrona:Lol Without the Lion in the pride then the job of the lionesses sometimes doesn't bring enough food for everyone. I mean, they will kill but try to eat as much as they can before the hyenas and their kind show up. The lionesses get bullied and their kill taken because of the number of the hyenas and their fearlessness. And the other big cats you talk about may get big kills but also get bullied too and some even get bullied by a lion pride. Now, a pride with a Lion doesn't need to rush; they eat to their satisfaction. A pride with a Lion is fearless. The Lion may sleep for most parts but that's the point; to conserve energy. The Lion, almost twice the size of a lioness, secures the kills and only gets involved when they go after a large prey. The Lion is a bully and the hyenas never dare go close to a pride with a king. Even the hyenas in The Lions King shivered at the sight of Mufasa So just chill with it 3 Likes |

Tylerbreeze:I don't know about one on one combat but with their social structure they can take on anything. Their social structure is their greatest strength. Besides why will one lion want to take down an elephant? Thor is badass but won't go hunting for Thanos all by himself Does that make him less of a god? 1 Like |

maxxG:What sort of fnckd up comparison is dat? One mature bull elephant will scare away a pride of lions. Lions only hunt elephant calves, n d success rate is low, due 2 d fact dat elephant calves most of d time stay with d herd. |

tunjidachosen: The places you can find Lion is motor-able, you can ride your car close to lion, but in Jungle where Tigers live/operate, it's always forest, you hardly move with leg in the bush let alone driving a car. 1. picture is the type of place Lions live. 2. picture is the type of place where Tigers live 1 Like 5 Shares

JJOF: Even though the experiment is inhumane, i will comment. Do you even know that these carnivores mostly aim at the jugular when attacking so as to cause maximum damage and death to their enemy. You will observe that the lion's mane gave it an advantage over the Tiger. If they are put together in a fight to death, the Lion will definitely win but with severe body injury. 1 Like |

Akuruoulo: One thing you must understand is that Tigers are not just good hunters, they are better hunters than Lions. Leopards are the best hunters |

Afonjas: Even in the water, the croc dare not attack the tiger. Don't u know tiger is a very good swimmer? Not only swimming sef, it's very lethal in water. and on ground it stand no chance against the canines. So, both the food is dragging and the croc are all food Even cheetah can kill croc |

lloydhassan: Yea that's true too. But there's just something about lions. They back down for none. It's only a Tiger that can go head to head with a Lion. Tigers are more agile and skillful but lions are straight up brutes that don't know what it means to back down from a fight. |

Hmmm. Well, on the Lion not being the King... U know, those exact points u found to discredit them, are actually tools that ll buttresses their kingship _They aint the top/best/first in any quality (Even though they possess them optimally). They dont have the most strength, not the biggest, not the fastest, not the wisest etc_ And oh, they have some pretty bad attributes too, like being lazy. But is that what being king is all about? Hell No. Its all in mentality. Attitude. Mindset. Lions dont fucking care about being the most qualified. Those so called "inadequacies" are nonexistent to them. They are fearless. They dont know intimidation. They have the courage of a full planet. They pride themselves. They walk about in confidence. They dare anything. They go after whatever they want. So do tell me, what is king again? [sub][/sub] 1 Like |
