That's a young croc though, so not really fair.

And it's a Jaguar rather than a Leopard.

Nevertheless, I'm not sure any big cat could take on a fully grown croc, but probably more relevant is they're too smart to bother.

A Polar bear would definitely be the top predator in the Antarctic. yes It would also be very, very lost
Are you sure,those penguins look pretty damn vicious!
They're also pretty hard for Polar Bears to eat.


They can't get the wrappers off!
I think the joke goes -


Q.Why don't polar bears eat penguins?

A. Because they live in different hemispheres and so the chances of a meeting between the two animals is staggeringly remote.

I'm like to nominate the Army Ant as a super organism. Taking a colony to represent a single indiviudal entity nothing can take on and beat those buggers. Not even a Hippo.

I believe the rankings in hardness are accepted to be:

Brown Bear
Tiger
Lion
Gorilla

Brown bears are the most fearsome predators on the planet. When placed in a cage with a Lion the poor old Lion didn't even get a look in.
The honey badger is the hardest animal in the world bar none. There's a video on YouTube of one badger fighting six lions and walking away. Still human vs tiger is only ending one way.

Jeez the way in which it drags her away like she is just a rag-doll. I always thought if I was attacked by a big cat like a lion or Tiger I would 'sacrifice' my weaker arm and with my 'good' arm get it in a sleeper hold and choke it out.
Now I am not so sure.
Wtf can't you see how big they are and of course sharp teeth and claws. Ffs our cat at home can draw blood when provoked!

I've read that the best way to stop a dog attacking you is to jab your fingers up it's backside. Same thing might be worth a go with a Tiger?

The backside is the other end to the snarling biting end.... Unless it's a terrier sized dog I don't hold out a lot of hope for success - even less with a full sized Tiger......

oh wait - you weren't being serious - Bugger avian incoming.........

You will have to change your name to Claude Balls if you try any of that sort of thing.

I reckon if you're being attacked by a tiger, the only way your finger is going to reach it's bumhole is on the way out.

Horrendous and disgusting. I wish people would refuse to buy products made in China.

Still, this story was Darwin in action.

That's fk all!

They still harvest the organs of political prisoners and sell them off. Careful enough to inject anti-coagulant into them first, prior to shooting and dissecting. http://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/23/asia/china-organ...

I've seen a book of photos that documented the process... Firing squads, backstops and a row of hospital vans ready to operate.

Horrific.

yes

I reckon jamming a tiger up it's backside would stop the dog attacking you.
