Who is stronger between lions and tigers? Who is the real The king of beasts has always been something that the general public talks about. are both the top large cats. There are actually many examples of their fighting. British scientists have also done this experiment, and the results have already explained everything.
1946, a British scientist and a tiger fight experiment.
In 1946, British scientists conducted an experiment in order to prove who is the real king of beasts, in order to prove that tigers or lions, and put an adult African lion and a female Bengal tiger in a big pit to fight.
At the beginning, neither the lion nor the tiger entered the battle immediately, but looked at each other cautiously, and neither attacked first.
After a few minutes of "familiarity", the two sides began to conduct one or two tests, and finally fought together. However, it didn't take long for the lion to fall down and the staff quickly separated them.
Then, they fought again. This time, the tiger was at a disadvantage, but not long after, the tiger turned over and pressed the lion hard under him.
The scientist who conducted the experiment, saw that the lion was about to lose, and then secretly gave the tiger an anesthetic . However, this not only did not subdue the tiger, but instead aroused the tiger's ferociousness and finally defeated the lion.
However, they did not give up and continued to join a lion and fought against the tiger again. In the end, the tiger and the lion both suffered losses. British scientists concluded that lions are better, but this is not the case.
Someone with a heart left a video and carefully observed afterwards that the female tiger fought with three different adult lions, and achieved such an impressive result. The result was obvious that the tiger was better at it.
Similarly, there are many examples of the tiger fighting.
1859, there was a newspaper called Harper Weekly that once reported a battle between the master and the tiger. A head called Gangka killed 30 lions in a period of time. After Gangjia came to the UK, the breeder arranged a battle with adult, young African lions.
Ganga wanted to attack the breeder before the battle, but was injured by the breeder's eyes and blindness. However, it can defeat the strong young African lion in this injured state, and it has not suffered much damage itself.
1914, a tiger fight also occurred in Bronx Zoo in New York, and the result also ended with the tiger's victory.
In 2010, at the Ankara Zoo in Turkey, the tiger and the lion's residence were separated by a net. As a result, a hole was broken and The tiger ran to the lion's territory and killed the lion in seconds.
The same example was also happening in a zoo in Guangzhou. When the staff discovered it, the lion had been killed by a tiger and dragged it 30 meters away.
Many examples can be explained that fighting alone, the strength of tigers is far superior to that of lions. Even tigresses can defeat adult lions, let alone adult male tigers. Therefore, the tiger is the real king of all beasts.
Why is the tiger stronger than the lion?
In terms of body shape, lions may be better. The average weight of African lions can reach 240kg. The largest tiger, , Siberian tiger , once had an average weight of more than 250kg. Now the average weight of Siberian tigers has severely shrunk, about 200kg. The length and height of , lions are a little older than tigers.
However, in terms of strength, the lion is far from the opponent of the tiger. The lion's biting force is only more than 900 kilograms, and the tiger's biting force is far more than 1000kg, and the tiger's biting force is about 10% higher than that of the lion.The palm power of a tiger is much stronger than that of a lion. The palm power of a tiger exceeds 1,000kg, and sometimes it can reach more than 3,000kg. The palm power of a lion is generally between 800kg and 900kg, which is much weaker than that of a tiger.
Lion's endurance is not as good as tigers. The lion's endurance is not strong. When catching prey, you can see that it is not enough to chase for a distance. Moreover, the lion likes to sleep in very much and only thinks about sleeping with the lioness every day, and is not very patient with other things. However, tigers are different. The endurance of tigers is not reflected in the time when they chase their prey, and when they ambush their prey, they can lie in ambush for a long time, and then fight for one blow to kill them and hunt them.
The speed of a lion is generally between 60㎞/h and 70㎞/h. The average speed of a tiger is slower than that of a lion, around 60km/h, but the short-range burst can reach 90km/h, which is related to the tiger's habit of ambushing prey.
Hunting skills, lions are even less than tigers. It is difficult to catch prey in the jungle, and tigers are hunting alone, so before fighting alone, tigers have more advantages. Because lions are hunted by groups of lions, they pay attention to the power of teamwork, and the probability of success in hunting a single lion is relatively low.
Overall, if you fight alone, the tiger is stronger under the same conditions.
summary
From the perspective of data analysis, tigers are better. From the examples of various divisions of tigers fighting, it is not difficult to see that tigers are far more powerful than lions. Of course, there are also examples of lion victory, Colosseum 10 lions and tigers fighting, and the tigers won 8 wins and 2 losses, which shows the situation.
British scientists did everything they could to make the lion win, but the lion could not win completely, which has explained everything.
