Who do you think is the better big cat, lion or Tiger?
Which is your favorite, and why? Which would dominate in a fight? Which is the better predator and fighter? Which will most likely survive the 21st century? All subspecies, prehistoric and modern, extinct and otherwise should be considered. Be courteous, civil, and logical and add any other big cat you would think is better than the above for any reason (My favorite is the Jaguar, but thatz just me.) "The Nephilim where in the Earth in those days..." Genesis 6:4

I don't think either of the cats are better, its a subjective question. I like lions better, for a few reasons:
1st) Unlike any of big cats, the lion posseses a tuft of hair at the end of its tail. The tuft of dark colored hair hides a "spur" of bone. 2nd) Unlike any of the other big cats, they live in a social matriarcal group called a pride. 3rd) On a clear night, a lions' roar can be heard 5 miles away. These are just a few reasons. Male Bengal Tigers measure 275--310 cm( including tail). Their weight ranges from 180 to 270 kilograms (400-594 pounds). lions are between 150--225 kg (330--500 lb) and his length is 170--250 cm (5 ft 7 in--8 ft 2 in).Tigers are bigger than lions, but the size difference is negligble. Thus, size cannot determine this fight. (Take note I got these weights from an old encyclopedia, the lion weights are conservative while the tiger weights I think are exxagerated) Tigers are slightly heavier and longer. Lions are taller at the shoulder. I have read, lions have a larger bite force and are more fast than tigers.Here the studies are: http://i95.photobucket.com/...1/Errol100/TigersoftheSnow.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l151/Errol100/Picture2.jpg I think its bullshit, if its true then the difference in bite force and speed is slight. I also would like to say; male lions aren't lazy, when they are eschewed or ousted from their original pride, they become nomads. The hunt and scavenge frequently. Taking over a pride is extremely, hard. The male leaders of a pride are typically from 5-7 years old, in their prime. They come from other prides and stay as long as they can defend the territory. However, a male lion's or coalition's reign lasts on average of 2-3 years, at the average age of 8-10 years. Larger groups of males will have a longer tenure in the pride than a single male or smaller group. After a lion loses its pride, it usually never takes over another one. Tigers fight three times a year for territory, mating rights etc. It must contend with dholes, leopards and mugger crocodiles. In Siberia, it must also contend with brown bears. Tigers fight just a little less than lions. I think aggresion is individual specific; there are aggresive lions and equally aggresive tigers. I think both cats will make it in the 21st century, although they are certainly doing better than the tiger. Rough estimates range from 30,000 to 100,000 individuals. Eastern and southern Africa have the largest lion populations, with the numbers dwindling in the western part of the continent. Edited by Earendil, : No reason given.

The Fetal Matrix: Evolution, Development and Disease By Peter D. Gluckman, Mark Hanson Source 3.This tiger was captured in India and went against a lion after being in captivity for only few days. Don't tell me that these few days changed the tiger's behavior in which it could not deliver a fatal neck bite. It was the Tiger's fight and he knew it. He sprang at the staggering Lion, took a fearful chop on the nose without flinching and set his teeth into the African's hairy throat. They wrestled desperately, and the Lion's heavy mane saved him from suffocation. Great mouthfuls of long coarse hair catching in the Tiger's teeth not only preventing him from getting a death grip, but so interfered with his with his respiration that he had to release the hold, whereupon the Lion swatted him with a tremendous uppercut and sent him tumbling twenty feet away. Source 4.Google Books The lion's mane, not possessed by the female, is evidently such a weapon of defense; it is a excellent means of protection against the bites which the male lions try to inflict on each other's necks when fighting for the females; consequently those males with the strongest manes have the greatest advantage in the sexual struggle.

With the cameras continuing to grind and getting nothing but a little harmless tug of war Energy spent, the exhausted Bobby tried to roll away from Caesar, but Caesar's hold now was as firm as Bobby's which had been on his mane. Seeing this turn in affairs, I dashed into the cage. Already Caesar's jaws had crunched Bobby's neck and when I got there Caesar was shaking Bobby's limp, bloody head and throat from side to side. Bobby's eyes were turning starey. He was dead and it was only two minutes since I had dashed the ammonia into his face. I was keenly sorry that I had done it, but in thinking it over I became convinced that my part had been negligible. The lion is frequently the superior; he doubtless would have been the winner in this case no matter what I had done. Source 6. If so, it is conceivable that a single male lion attacked by a pack of hyenas could reduce injury with the help of its mane. Manes protect males in interaspecific in other species. It may additionally confer advantages by limiting wounding in the neck region. ~Antipredator Defenses in Birds and Mammals By Timothy M. Caro Source 7.The lion's mane, not possessed by the female, is evidently such a weapon of defense; it is a excellent means of protection against the bites which the male lions try to inflict on each other's necks when fighting for the females; consequently those males with the strongest manes have the greatest advantedge in the sexual struggle.

Dora Schmitz, Sir E Ray Lankester Source 8.FAQ on Lion - Africa Mammals Guide The mane is also a means of protection to the face and neck during fights between male lions.

This collar of long, thick hair covers the head, except the face, and the neck down to the shoulders and chest. The mane makes the male look even bigger and stronger than he is. It also protects him during fights. The long, thick hair softens the blows of his foes. Schaller, George B. "Lion." World Book Encyclopedia. 2002 ed. The best naturalist of the 20th century said that. Source 16. On the open savannah, a lion's mane advertises his maleness from a great distance. To enhance his mane, a lion will do the "lion strut": tip-toeing on front legs, erect body and tail. The mane also protects against claws and teeth in male combat. http://www.virtualtourist.com/travel/Afric...serve-BR-1.html Source 17.A male lion's mane is designed to protect the animal from attacks from other lions. It apparently also works with hand grenades as well. Marjan's neck and chest were spared serious injury, but his face was badly mutilated by the blast. http://www.lionlmb.org/lion/marjan.html Source 18.The most distinctive feature of the male lion is its mane, a collar of long, thick fur. An adolescent male's mane will begin to grow at 18 months, after which it will continue to grow and darken until the age of five. A visual indicator of gender and power, the mane also serves to protect the lion's neck from other lions. The Living Edens "Lion" Source 19. The mane helps protect the lion’s neck during fighting and make him appear larger to competitors African Lion Source 20. Their mane serves a number of purposes: a) it identifies him as a mature male to other lions, even at a distance b) it gives an appearance of increased size with little weight cost c) the condition of the mane conveys the level of health and vigour to female lions d) it can help protect the head and neck area in fights with other lions.

When one animal attacks another, he seems to know by instinct. He strikes for the neck for a quick kill. Nature seems to have provided the lion with a defensive covering -- a mane to protect the neck area. ~The Lion in Fact and in Fiction - Source 23. The mane is strictly a male attribute and gives lion’s their majestic aura It acts almost like a fencing mask, absorbing paw swipes aimed at the head and necks during fights between rivals. When mane’s grow to big for both rival’s, the fight can last up to hour’s due to the mane protecting the main arterie’s, little to nothing can be done to male’s who have mane’s that grown larger than others for it’s main reason is for combat . ~The Art of Being a Lion - Source 24. The mane plays an important role in the lion’s life. While a long mane that blows easily in the wind may be difficult to hide when hunting an alert zebra, it is a distinct advantage in defense That same mane gives his neck a good bit of protection in case the intruder does not turn away and chooses to challenge the resident lion for his position. ~The Last Big Cats An Untamed Spirit - Source 25. Male lions are larger than females and possess a voluminous mane which contrast with the sleek pelage on other parts of the body The distinctive colors and sizes of manes may also help animals to identify individuals. An important secondary function of the mane is one of protection during fights. The dense mat of hair absorbs blows and harmlessly tangles claws in a part of the body towards which most social contact is directed; bites too, may leave an opponent with a mouth full of hair rather than skin. ~The Serengeti Lion A Study of Predator-Prey Relations Wildlife Behavior and Ecology series.

In a fight would de unable to get close to the vital joint of a lion’s neck because of his thick mane, but the tiger is vulnerable to the lion. The film showed that the tiger was at an immediate disadvantage. Tigers use a throat grip as their primary means of killing and the lion's thick protective mane prevented the tiger gaining a hold on the throat joint. On the other hand, the tiger had no special protection, so was vulnerable to attack. In this fight, the tiger was killed. In any inter-species confrontation lions would also have the advantage of the who pride. But in my opinion a tiger is no match even for a single lion of equal strength. In any inter-species confrontation lions would also have the advantage of support from members of the whole pride. But in my opinion a tiger is no match even for a single lion of equal strength. Tiger! The Story of the Indian Tiger, by Kailash Sankhala. - Source 27. Now, as to a lion and tiger, I should say that the tiger is the more powerful of the two. At the same time, it is more cowardly, has more of the slinking nature of the cat, and is more treacherous. I believe I’m fully qualified to state, as I’ve had them both on me. I bear the teeth marks of a lion that shut his jaws tight on my legs. But it isn’t the teeth of the big cats trainers fear so much. It is the claws, being hooked, tear out the flesh and sinew as they are withdrawn. When a lion goes at a trainer he starts right towards him, with no subterfuge, mouth open and tail as stiff as a poker. A tiger cringes and crawls until he makes his spring. In a fair fight it would be hard to guess which animal would come off victor, and much would depend, I think on the one that got the first good hold. The lion also is protected around the neck by the heavy mane, which is an advantage. ~George Conklln, Adventures With a Circus Source 28. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_FtEEFZq_s - Source 29.

Beatty and his assistants, Capt. W. K. Bernardi, Eugene Scott, Grover McCage and others were unable to break up the fight.

As a boy I used to wonder what would happen if a lion and a tiger got into a fight. For years I would play that over in my imagination and speculate about the outcome. Until one day I happened to see a movie exhibited by Dr. Louis Talbot. He had been in India on an occasion when a lion and a tiger had somehow accidentally fallen into the same pit. Someone was there with a movie camera and filmed the whole thing. I tell you, I watched with great interest as this battle went on! These cats circled one another, one would lash out at the other, they would spit and snarl and leap about in that light way cats have. Then suddenly they would grapple together and roll about, spitting and biting. It was tremendous to watch! Then, quicker that the eye could follow, something happened, and the tiger appeared to cave in. He simply fell down. The lion had caught it at just the right moment, had slapped it on the side of the head, and had crushed its skull. That was the end of the battle. ~Lion Tiger Fight. __________________________________________________ __________________ 10. There was a great deal of lion and tiger pit fighting held in Korea until 1960. Historic reports say the lion was found very difficult to beat, again due to the head protection afforded by the mane.

Tiger Territory. __________________________________________________ __________________ 11. Despite the final appearance given by the movie, tigers were largely unsuccessful in the gladiatorial area. Lions were more popular as they put on an excellent fight display, whereas tigers were surprisingly reluctant to enter into battle. Placed in with lions, the tigers would often simply retreat.

In any inter-species confrontation lions would also have the advantage of support from members of the whole pride. But in my opinion a tiger is no match even for a single lion of equal strength.

Mr. Bolton said that a friend of his saw, in the circus at Verona, a battle between a lion, and a tiger, a horse, and an ass. The tiger shewed symptoms of fear, and wished to decline the battle with the lion. He fought however at last with great fury; but, though he foiled the lion for a time by his alertness, soon yielded on close contact to the other’s matchless strength.

Clyde Beatty was one of the world's most recognized animal trainers. Known mostly for his circus work, Beatty also worked in film with his cats. He was a practitioner of the "whip and chair" school of training. He thought that animals could only be taught through fear. During the filming of a fight between a lion and a tiger for the movie The Big Cage, Beatty threw ammonia in the tiger's face so the animal would look angry on film. The cat was so enraged it fiercely attacked the lion, and the lion in turn killed the tiger. ~ Cynthia Boris 1999, the big cage issue has met a storm of controversy and some claim that the tiger was not killed.__________________________________________________ __________________ 26. In February 1951 a lion fought and killed a tiger as 3,000 children looked on at the opening performance of a circus at Detroit, Illinois, U. S. A., and another tiger was killed by a lion at Madras Zoological Gardens in September the same year after being transferred to the lion's cage while his own quarters were being cleaned. (2 tigers were killed) ~A friend found these for me and boy a double whammy, it should be found in multiple sources like the Guinness book of animal fact and feats. __________________________________________________ __________________ 28. The following month a large Bengal tiger named "Tim" was killed by a lion named "Nero" at Perth Zoological Gardens, Western Australia. The tiger was in a cage adjoining the lion and a lioness named "Bessie". The lioness forced up the steel slide dividing the cage and Tim, curious, put his head through. Nero, the zoo's biggest lion, promptly bit him in the throat, and in three minutes the tiger was dead. ~Guinness book of animal fact and feats __________________________________________________ __________________ 29. In June 1949 a circus at New Bedford, Massachusetts, U. S. A. lost its tiger after a battle with a lion. A lion and a tiger battled to the death here. The lion won. When Biller Brothers Circus moved on to its next stop, it left behind the carcass of the loser, a tiger weighing quarter of a ton. ~This is the same account with two sources one is from Guinness book of animal fact and feats; I do not have the name of the other one on hand, but I can retrieve it if need be.__________________________________________________ __________________ 30. Please don't forget the lion vs. tiger fight that was reported in last year's September (2005) edition of Monthly Chosun, the magazine with the largest circulation in South Korea nowadays. During this fight, Po Cheol the majestic male lion knocked out a very large, 200+ kg male tiger, sending him flying as far as 3 meters! ~Monthly Chosun __________________________________________________ __________________ 31. After this we came to the memorable lion and tiger fight which was supposed to settle the aged controversial question, "which is the better fighter, the lion or the tiger?" The idea of a fight to the death between a lion and a tiger fascinates almost anybody who has any red blood in him. Here are the two most unsociable brutes of the jungle, both treacherous, wary, cunning and ferocious. Darwin and some others thought the lion's mane was intended as an armor for its blood vessels during a fight, rather than as a sexual adornment, which is the contention of a few. This mane the tiger misses. On the other hand the tiger is an individualist, not given to ganging as the lion is. The tiger is therefore nearer to being self-dependent. In my experience, the lion has shown himself somewhat superior to the tiger in fighting, yet it would not be safe to say that the lion can always whip the tiger, for sometimes it comes out the other way. Sometimes the tiger holds off three or four lions and leaves the cage unharmed. ~Jungle performers, 1941 __________________________________________________ __________________ 32.

He said he would watch the killer lion very close from now on, but indicated he felt there was nothing too unusual about the fight. "The biggest expense I have is tigers killed by lions. he said. "They are natural enemies but then, that makes the show better." He said lions had killed "probably 50" tigers in the years he has been working with the big jungle cats. ~Clyde Beatty Wow 50 Deaths, so I will be fair and add about 40 victories for the list, since I have few Beatty accounts. Let Roman lessons be learned. This will be a endless pool for the lion to draw victories from... 75. A tiger is supposed to win a fight with a lion. But it took a rifle bullet to do it at San Francisco's Fleishhacker Zoo. Zoo' director Carey Baldwin told the story Wednesday. Two lions were being transferred to other cages through the tiger grotto Sunday. Tuffy, a 12-year-old lion, somehow opened the- door to the grotto and attacked Nicholas, a 6-year-o1d Siberian tiger. Riflemen came running when zoo keeper Alec Weiss sounded the alarm. The lion had an apparent death grip on the tiger's neck. Carroll Soo-Hoo, principal benefactor of the zoo, took one look and killed the lion. The tiger was worth $3,500, the lion $100. Catherine, the female tiger at the zoo, cowered in a corner during the fight. ~San Francisco (AP) This is a very good account, and it is probably my favorite, the lion was quite old and judging by his price was not a prime specimen or and possibly a smaller Nubian/Eastern lion. Nevertheless he defeated a male Siberian in his turf and would have most likely killed him if he was not shot. I am fairly certain if he was not killed he would have killed both tigers. So much for the Siberian tiger being out of the lion’s league!__________________________________________________ __________________ 76. Sept. 19Sikestonians had a glimpse of big-game hunting when a lion killed a tiger during circus performance here. ~The Sikeston, 1935 __________________________________________________ __________________ 77. Now, as to a lion and tiger, I should say that the tiger is the more powerful of the two. At the same time, it is more cowardly, has more of the slinking nature of the cat, and is more treacherous. I believe I’m fully qualified to state, as I’ve had them both on me. I bear the teeth marks of a lion that shut his jaws tight on my legs. But it isn’t the teeth of the big cats trainers fear so much. It is the claws, being hooked, tear out the flesh and sinew as they are withdrawn. When a lion goes at a trainer he starts right towards him, with no subterfuge, mouth open and tail as stiff as a poker. A tiger cringes and crawls until he makes his spring. In a fair fight it would be hard to guess which animal would come off victor, and much would depend, I think on the one that got the first good hold. The lion also is protected around the neck by the heavy mane, which is an advantage. There is one instance I remember where a full grown lion and tiger engaged in combat, by unforeseen chance of course. It was when the John O’ Brien Show had its winter quarters in Philadelphia and I was connected with it. A lion and a tiger were in a compartment cage, with a partition between. In some manner this partition was battered down in the night and the two big felloes got together. They had probably been issuing challenges to each other and promising what they would do to one another if the chance came. When morning arrived we found the two in the lion’s cage, the tiger dead and the lion all chew and clawed to pieces, but still full of fight. ~George Conklln, Adventures With a Circus __________________________________________________ __________________ 78. LION KILLS TIGER WITH ONE BLOW. Curiosity killed the cat today at the Baltimore zoothe cat in this case being a $1,200 year-old Sumatra tiger. The tiger got into a between-the bars tangled with a lion and the lion ripped a gash in the tiger's leg. The tiger was found dead in its cage today. Fifty stitches had been taken in the tiger's foreleg after the brawl. Tuesday he was put under anesthesia to make him sleep. But this plus penicillin and other medicines couldn't save him. Death was blamed on pulmonary thrombosis, Zoo Director Arthur Watson said the tiger stuck his paw over a metal guard into the lion's cage in a gesture of curiosity. A male lion did the rest.Baltimore (AP) Zoo Battle Results In Tiger’s Death 1954 __________________________________________________ __________________ 79. Lion Kills Attacking TigerWhen a connecting door between two cages was left open at Agartala, Bengal, by a forgetful zoo attendant, a tiger charged its neighbor, a lion. The fight was ferocious, but did not last long, the lion literally tearing the tiger to pieces. __________________________________________________ ____________________87. It was a fight to the death between a lion and a tigress in the arena at Bosktock's show yesterday before the audience gathered, and the lion won. Last night "Annie." the tigress was gasping out her life in her cage, while "Romeo" the big eight year old lion pompously paraded his cage as if proud of his feat. Prof. Charles Millere, one of the animal trainers connected with the show is getting up a new act. In it are two lions, two tigers a Thibet bear, a polar bear and a big baboon. Every morning they are marched out into the arena and put through their paces behind the 20 foot iron railing. As yet the animals are not on very friendly terms. Yesterday morning the lions and tigers did "their turn" Everything went well, and Prof. Millere was congratulating himself that the act would soon be ready for public production. Suddenly "Romeo" and "Annie" came close to each other. It all happened in a moment. "Gr-r-r!" snarled "Annie," "Romeo" roared. Then the tigress flew at "Romeo" and tried to catch him by the throat. He shook her off with one toss of his head; she tried for the shoulder hold. She missed it by an inch. Either clutch secure, and a tiger will hold one say the trainers, until it is killed. In a twinkling the arena was in a tumult. The baboon was screeching upon a pyramid, paralyzed with fear, and the bears were lunging madly against the iron bars of their pen in a mad attempt to get away. "Romeo" batted his paw at "Annie" and knocked her down. She sprang wildly at him. One savage roar and he buried his fangs in her spine. Deeper and deeper sank his teeth in the soft flesh. The tigress shrieked madly and clawed frantically to get free. Every animal in the place heard the conflict and began echoing a lusty chorus to the fight. The attendants were powerless. Both beast were fighting for their lives. Millere pronged them ruthlessly, but he might as well have used his weapon on the board floors. "Romeo" hung like grim death. Millere whipped a revolver filled with blanks out of his pocket. "Bang! Bang!" went his weapon, but it didn't disturb the death hold of "Romeo." Mr. F. C. Bostock, the proprietor heard the rumpus and rushed into the arena. In his hand he has a fire extinguisher. He turned the nossle full into "Romeo" nostrils, and the big beast let go. Millere and his helpers drove "Annie" back with their long prongs. She sank helplessly in a corner, while "Romeo" with bristling mane and lusty roar, slowly retreated into his cage without a scratch. The Tigress had to be carried to her cage. There was an ugly wound in her back, and the examination showed that the spine had been injured. Last night she was unable to stand up, and it seemed that here death will be a certainty. "Annie" is worth $2,000, and had she submitted to training her value would have been double. The Gleaner, Friday November 2, 1902__________________________________________________ ____________________ 88. The lion trainer forgot to lock the door in the partition between the lions and a female tiger that we had just brought, after his rehearsal at Bavenna, OH, and the tigress pushed it open an walked into the lion’s den. A terrible fight followed, in which one of the lions disemboweled and fatally injured her. __________________________________________________ ______________________ 89. The amphitheatre had grown so still, that the clear melody of the flute was distinctly audible over the whole vast space. As soon as the disturbance ceased, the king of the beast, apparently untroubled by the new visitor, returned to his food. But the cowardice, peculiar to nocturnal beasts in the daylight, awoke in the tiger. He beheld in the shrieking multitude friends of the flute-player, and seeing the lion eating, seized the nearest piece of meat. But with a single bound the lion sprang forward, roaring loudly, to defend his property. The tiger’s claws clutched the lion’s and a fierce struggle began. The lion aimed terrible blows at his antagonist, which the tiger avoided with marvelous skill; the tiger’s teeth seized the lion’s mane, but at the same instant the latter tore off with his claws from the upper part of the tiger’s head half the skin, from which an eat and a broad trail of blood upon the sand, the tiger returned to his cage, where he howled piteously. The grating was raised, and soon only a faint whining was audible. Either the animal was dying, or the keepers had stupefied him to be able to cure him. The lion stood fiercely over his prey, which no one now disputed.__________________________________________________ ______________________ 90. 18.

XD XD http://www.pictures-of-cats.org/...-versus-lion-21608800.jpg Oh what’s that is that a name I see on the top corner of the page. Huh! That’s right caught in the act, I’m a landscaper and ground’s keeper for 8 year’s and studyed the biology of hundred’s of different grasses, and the grass in the picture with the so call death and Cameron’s and zmabu collection of picture’s are the same. I even emailed everland’s resort and they stated that, that never happened and cameron the lion is still alive today. You don’t belive, then here, here’s there contact email and phone number to get a hold of them, yourselfhttp://www.everland.com/...glish/resort/introduce/intro.html - #2Here’s another tiger fanatic lying punk, who said there was 6 lion’s used on 1 tiger Huh! Really 6, give me a break, here it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GXoKnG4ksY - Here’s a person graphing all the tiger’s showing just like a human’s finger print, no tiger has the same stripe’s, showing there was indeed 3 lion’s vs 3 tiger’s like the real movie’s narrirator said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBdpiIxMnMM Ive seen the original video, it had nothing to do with them fighting it was a documentaion of all the animal’s of india, and none on youtube have the original, which suppose to have a narrirator talking, stating that beside’s all the animal’s they descirbed for the fight scene the lion’s and tiger’s that fought the tiger’s couldent land a death grip and gassed them selve’s out. But lion #2 mauled the big male tiger. - #3Another one is junglar the fighting tiger who killed 31 lion’s. this is a fake account and a missprint. First there was an article that had numbering’s of junglar killing them with the number’s 31, after I confronted the guy who showed it, I told him I read 4 document’s of junglar an they stated he didn’t fight any lion’s he was famous for killing a lot buffalo’s and was the first tiger who brought down a rhino, who a few tiger’s failed to do. Who also he killed a few other tiger’s and said it must have been a misprint because I know the king of oude had very few lion’s. - This mook then stated I was lieing, and showed a revised one saying in wording, look now. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/...AAAAAQQ/_SBctIVNkmc/s1600/j3.jpg It say’s thirthy one lion’s in wording’s you cant misprint letter’s, and I’m lieing about the what I’m saying. XD XD Then I said you were caught in the act because when you revised the new one that said wording’s of the number’s the date you edited it was still there an this one has a different name from junglar to gunga an I said okay here’s where it state’s the King of oude had only 3 lion’s, here ABAA - Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of America - Antiquarian and Rare Books - 14k http://www.amazon.com/Private-Life- Eastern -King -Nussir.../1108046703 - 178k eastern king of oude - Google Search The private life of an Eastern king [by W.

XD - #4 Jackjacksonj site had claimed he had 367 account’s I mixed and matched all the account’s and he had only 30 that mean’s he leid on 330 account’s, which I posted the answer sheet you can go threw on this very page also on his site I left all the one’s he lied on in his guest book and blog. - #5 The same idiot named Ptigirs who made the account of 6 lion’s with Gir has many account’s on you tube here’s another one of his faked one’s of being a lion hater https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eqWZJtdhCc - And here’s the real account he changed the wording’s from ` https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyOG0SYNmjA ` - #6 Ton’s of people use Prison of the harem with performing acting lions and tiger’s as an account, which say’s the tiger killed the lion, http://4.bp.blogspot.com/...bYgBNAT5l4/s320/sdfaasdfadsf.JPG XD That’s only people reading the story’s plot, that the tiger killed the lion,, he didn’t actually die, it was only a scene for the movie no lion’s were ever killed for any movie. Only the movie the big cage, had 3 tiger’s die, one was bobby the tiger the star for the movie and other 2 were suppose to have been the star of defeating the lion ceasar, for the scrpit the director wanted a tiger winningbut the first 2 tiger’s died so fast that there wasent any footage to be recorded, but Bobby was the one who was aired in the movie, who Cesar killed.

Well, frankly people alway's say that the lion only had the title King from the disney movie lion King an never lived in the jungle XD... Which was 20 or so year's ago. But the lion had the title {King} for thousand's of year's. Here's a few Historical turn point's an back story of the lion threw different era's an different culture's...
- - Lions have always been considered the kings of the Jungle. But most of the people in the world think that lions are only found in the African continent. People haven't been mislead in this regard, the truth is that there aren't much lions left in the rest of the world. About 10, 000 years ago lions spanned vast sections of the globe, but as the human population started to increase, trees were cut and forests were cleared to make more land for people to live in. Now lions only in small fractions in some parts of the world. And Asiatic lions, a subspecies that split from African lions perhaps 100,000 years ago, are only found in the Gir wildlife Sanctaury of the Indian state of Gujarat. http://www.indianwildlifeportal.com/...dia/asiatic-lion.html - - - The legacy of the lion, King of Beasts, as the model throughout history is demonstrated by its appearance among the earliest drawings made by humans over 15,000 years ago. http://www.indiantiger.org/wild-cats/lion.html - There were magnificent illustration of lions amongst the statues at Mahabalipuram. The most major use of the lion as a symbol of power and strength was associated with the Emperor Asoka in Sarnath, 2000 years ago. http://www.wild-india.com/IndianAnimals/indian-lion.html - Presently, Gir National Park is serving as the only home of the Asiatic lions in the whole world. However, the situation used to be different some years back. Indian lion once used to roam around in Asia Minor and Arabia, from Persia to India. Even in the Indian subcontinent, they used to be found in the northern areas of the country as well as in the eastern areas, upto Bihar. In south, Naramada River used to serve as the boundary for the Asiatic lions. Read on to know more about Asiatic lion history in India. The species got extinct from Bihar in 1840, Delhi in 1834, Bhavalpur in 1842, Eastern Vindhyas & Bundelkhand in 1865, Central India & Rajasthan in 1870 and Western Aravallis in 1880. The history of Asiatic (Indian) Lion in the country tells us that the last time an Asiatic lion was found in the wild outside Saurashtra was in the year 1884. http://www.iloveindia.com/...imals/asiatic-lion/history.html - Some dedication's to the lion, who also have made conservation's to save the King from extinction... Full Stop India - Stop for the Best Products in India Conservationandsociety.org - - InFVedic literature, the lion is mentioned as the king of the jungle. Asiatic lions were abundant in the Indus Valley (actual Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Sind). Tigers were the animals of the East. For Vedic people, the inhabitants of western India, the lion was a more popular animal than the tiger and was the icon of power. InFBuddhist literatureF(300BC), theFJatakas, a collection of 547 stories about Buddha’s prior existenceFin which he is described as having taken birth as a variety of different animals, the Asiatic lion is once again a prominent character.FBecause Buddha plays the leading role of a pre-eminent person he is styled as the Universal Monarch (Raja Chakkavatti); and a lion (siha).FThat could explain why,FEmperor AshokaF (273 -F236FBCE), the most famous of the Buddhist rulers of India,Finscribed his famous edicts on the lion capitol of Sarnath.

- It's still a toss up. It's like pitting a white man vs a black man, there's no way in telling who'd be the victor in over all status. Some time's the lion sometime's the tiger, but I think that male lion's hold a share hold of an advantage due to the mane, being more of a practiced fighter due to living in coalition's, while the tiger is solitary. Tiger's fight as well, yet not rutinely as the lion do. - I love both tiger's and lion's it's a tough one, but the evidence I presented more favor's the lion in a fight...

I found them this morning feeding ont he hippo, thouhg Notch himself had already eaten and was sleeping in teh shade about a hundred metres fro teh carcass. As the morning sun started getting hot, the lions left the carcass one by one untill only one was left and this one decided to guard the carcass from teh Hyaenas that were waiting around. While watching this, some four Buffalo bulls came towards the carcass. Tehy soon picked teh scent of the lions and they started charing at two males that were sleeping in the bush, driving them away from the vicinity of the carcass, although Notch was spared since he was a bit further. The Buffaloes left breifely before coming back and started chasing the lions again around. This time they went upto the carcass and drove away the one that was watching over it, and drove them away including Notch. After this drama which lasted half of the morning, the Buffaloes gave up and left the lions to continue with feast. This is the fourth Hippo we have seen recently killed by the five. It seems they are now tunring to the Hippos since there is not much else to hunt.

Botswana's Savuti lions, however, switch to preying on elephants during the late dry season (August-November), and the frequency of this has increased in the last two decades (1985—2005). An opportunity to document this phenomenon was made possible with infrared viewing and filming equipment. A pride of 30 lions killed one elephant every three days. Seven of eight elephants killed were between four and 11 years old, as deduced from molar teeth ageing, and this age group represented over half the kills recorded by Joubert ( 2006 ). It is suggested that this weaned, maternally less dependent age class, may be more vulnerable to lion predation. Lions prey on elephants since the density of conventional ungulate prey is reduced as a result of an annual migration, and artificial water provisioning has prompted an increasingly sedentary population of elephants. Notes are presented on the lion's behaviour in hunting elephants and the evolutionary significance of this.
