1. Who do you think is the better big cat, lion or Tiger?
2. Which is your favorite, and why?
3. Which would dominate in a fight?
4. Which is the better predator and fighter?
5. Which will most likely survive the 21st century?
6. All subspecies, prehistoric and modern, extinct and otherwise should be considered.
7. 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.)
1. Tiger. Greater range of climate from sub-arctic to equatorial.
2. Lion. I like social animals more. The whole pride aspect among felines is more interesting to me.
3. One on one a tiger, I just doubt that a one on one fight would occur naturally (I doubt a tiger would challenge a pride), and their ranges only overlap in a few places (central Asia, and eastern India).
4. No answer. Not sure.
5. Both will survive, though I am not sure if tigers will survive in the wild.
6. Sorry I just considered the extant and recently extinct
7. As a North American I prefer the Puma concolor as my overall favorite (from Alaska to Tiera del Fuego). I think its better because it adapts better, can live in anywhere from Tundra to rain forest to desert to moutains, to plains, to suburbs, and is not a regular predator on humans so its chances of surviving is greater.

ummm....tldr (j/k)
slow down man.
not that i want a huge post with 100 links but, I think the jury is still out on that.
2. 3 wild lion's vs 3 wild tiger's in aniaml documanrtry of india...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBdpiIxMnMM
this was the one I watched (the other sites are blocked here). and that video was straight up garbage.
1st. the tigers range doesn't extend into the Gir.
2nd it was totally set up
3rd none of them died.
look I get you are passionate about lions for some reason, but make a point instead of just copy and pasting a bunch of links and a 2nd hand story.
I am not saying you are wrong, but you are definitely not convincing at all.
I mean answer the questions in the OP, only #3 is about who would win in a fight, and after pages of links there doesn't seem to be much evidence either way.

weak sauce
Dude first of all, grabage? I seen the original video, you havent, plain an simple, there isint the original video on youtube, it's 4 an half hour's long...it's not even a movie it's a documentry... You claiming it was staged? Huh! No it wasnt, they had a few zoologist studying animal's of india like bird's, fish, cattle, lion's, rodent's, tiger's and more...with the company of a 100 treking indian's on elephant's, they set up camp an lion's an tiger's came in close for curiosity an came to close for comfort lunging at the native's, so they shewed them away while a tiger landed in a steep cavern, it stayed there until a few hour's a lion came threw an thew shewed it into the pit as well, where the first fight took place.
well if you can't link the original, then why bring it up, and why link the crappy one. It seems very disingenuous to have good data and share the bad data while trying to make any sort of point at all.
you never addressed the issue of range. Tiger's don't live in the Gir, let alone 3 of them. the only place where a tiger's range overlaps so much that 3 are in the same area is called a zoo, or a private menagerie, or a circus.
TIGERS do not live in the Gir Forest.
here are the differences between the African lion (as seen in the totally BS video) and the Asiatic lion there are many differences,
http://animal.discovery.com/...rican/asiatic-vs-african.html
its fairly obvious even in a grainy black and white video that the lions were not Asiatic, plus the only tiger that has a geographic range even close to the Gir is the Bengal Tiger, and they are larger than the Asiatic lions (opposed the size comparison in that video).

yeah about that.

pictures of text from a published document isn't evidence. heck most of those pictures show how big captive lions get, yet you are trying to argue how the lion in that funny vid were wild!?! srsly?
if you have a real source then link the published document. a picture of text from a no name book is essentially nothing.
you realize that this is still question #3 about the two fighting each other.
care to answer anything else about this, or is this you one trick pony?
Okay I can cram some more up a Bia's punk's ass...

somebody disagrees with me so i will call them names.
weak sauce indeed
