What???!!!!!

Not even close to being accurate. The biggest Siberian tigers in existence are in the 600+ lbs range.

Ain’t no guarantee, but I’ll take the pound for pound strongest mammal with its quickness, the tiger. But it always depends.

If size is equal then tiger......if it’s a big grizzly or polar the bear would destroy it.

If they were both around the same size, i'd like to think the tiger would come out on top simply b/c it kills to live, while bears are more foragers.

But, i don't think a tiger could continue if the bear gets a good swipe in with those claws. If the bear is passive, he'll get whipped, but i think if the bear is the aggressor, he'd slice open a tiger.

So to me, the bear should win given his tools, but i wouldn't trust his killer instinct, which would give the edge to the tiger. All about if the bear wants to win or not.

Deep metaphor about life buried somewhere in that post.

Pretty sure it would happen just like that video.

Tigers quickness would prevent it from getting hurt. It would rough up the bear pretty good but its thick coat would prevent the tiger from doing real damage.

Bear roughed up
Tiger largely undamaged

Type matters.

Siberian versus Grizzly, Kodiak, Polar would end up with the edge to the bear. However, the shear ferocity and agility of the Tiger make up for quite a bit of size discrepancy.

I don't believe it'd be to the death. They'd both limp away.....
