00:00 Lion and the tiger are the best predators in the wild.
00:21 But who is the real king of the jungle?
00:23 Powerful claw swings, huge bite force, scary roars.
00:28 In this video we are going to see who will be the real king of the wild world and why.
00:44 Lion vs Tiger Aggressiveness.
00:48 Lions can be extremely aggressive.
00:50 Lions have been seen hunting cheetahs, killing them and not eating them.
00:55 They do this just in order to dominate the habitat they live in.
00:59 Lions promote fear among the other animals in savannah so that they can maintain their
01:04 dominance.
01:05 When lions take down a prey, it usually takes 4 hours just to finish that meal.
01:11 Tigers show aggressive behavior at kill sites.
01:14 They never share.
01:15 If a female tiger kills a prey, male tiger must wait until she finishes.
01:21 If he does not wait, there will be a fight to defend the territory.
01:25 These fights will have severe results.
01:28 Tigers have a record of bite force with around 1050 PSI and they know that.
01:33 In a fight, the most important move is to avoid tiger bites.
01:37 Because when tigers bite, they won't open their jaw until prey dies.
01:42 Tigers also have powerful claw swings.
01:44 They can hunt animals with one claw swing.
01:51 Muscularity.
01:52 That's for sure that both of these hunters are equipped with important features to look
01:57 more masculine.
01:58 A fully grown male lion can weigh up to 570 pounds.
02:02 With a muscle density of 60%, a lion can carry 342 pounds of pure muscle in its body.
02:10 This is a huge number in the animal world.
02:12 This cat is 7 feet long and can stand 4 feet from shoulder.
02:19 Tigers with a muscle density of 65% have muscles everywhere in their bodies.
02:24 They are shown as the most muscular animal in the world.
02:28 Look at this picture.
02:29 These muscles are the source of these powerful claw swings.
02:33 Siberian tiger is the largest tiger breed, with males weighing up to 660 pounds and measuring
02:40 up to 10 feet long from nose to tip of the tail.
02:43 You can only see Siberian tigers in Russian Far East and Northeast China.
02:49 Hunting skills.
02:50 Lions with their social skills are intelligent animals.
02:54 They prefer to stick together while hunting because they know the advantage of being in
02:59 a group.
03:00 They attack the prey animal strategically.
03:02 Firstly, a lion stalks a prey animal quietly.
03:06 When it gets close enough, lion attacks the prey and catch it with a burst of speed.
03:13 Lion catches it by breaking its neck or biting its throat.
03:18 Tigers hunt lonely.
03:19 But sometimes, they can be seen with one or more huge males.
03:23 They ambush their prey, pouncing on it and killing it in one swift move before slinking
03:29 away back into the woods.
03:31 Tigers can be pretty stubborn when they are trying to take down a prey.
03:35 They can wait for a long time for prey animal to come closer to them.
03:39 They don't go near prey.
03:41 Prey comes to them.
03:43 They attack the neck of the prey animal and grab it with a bite force of around 1,050
03:48 PSI.
03:49 Bite force.
03:52 Lions have a significant low bite force, which is around 650 PSI.
03:57 It is hard to believe, but an animal the size of a lion has such a weak bite force.
04:02 It is sometimes hard to understand the nature.
04:05 Animals are given exactly what they need to stay alive in the wild nature.
04:09 If a lion requires a stronger bite force of more than 650 PSI, the lion evolves with a
04:16 stronger bite force.
04:17 If lions have a low bite force, it means that they have several different abilities to be
04:23 the king of the jungle.
04:26 Lions hunt in groups.
04:27 Each lion jumps on an animal and defeats it.
04:33 Other animals have much stronger bite force.
04:36 But they are usually solitary predators who need this kind of strength to defeat the animal.
04:41 The lions always do their job.
04:43 Although they are the driving force behind the sissy, they can still kill animals, and
04:47 their bites aren't the only skills used for hunting and defense.
04:50 The Bengal tiger, which boasts the longest teeth of any cat species, has a frightening
04:56 display.
04:57 It also has a strength to support it, providing over 1,000 pounds of pressure per square inch.
05:03 It is almost twice as strong as lions.
05:08 Tigers have an impressive bite force of around 1,050 PSI.
05:11 Such a large bite force is enough to easily shatter bones.
05:14 With this ability, no teamwork is needed.
05:17 Even bites for a joke can result in severe injuries.
05:29 Lions are energetic beasts.
05:31 With a top speed of 50 mph, the lion is the second fastest animal in Africa.
05:37 Only beaten by cheetahs capable of breaching speeds of 74 mph, lions can claim to be faster
05:43 than most animals.
05:45 But they can sustain this high speed only for a short term.
05:50 That's why they always sneak up close to their prey before attacking.
05:54 When they get close enough, they attack with a high burst of speed and catch the prey and
05:59 kill it at that moment.
06:05 Despite their huge body, tigers can be extremely fast.
06:08 They also can only run for short distances.
06:11 Tigers know what they can do and cannot.
06:16 They always wait for the prey animal to come in their range.
06:20 They do not even make a little sound while approaching their prey.
06:24 Tigers instinctively sense the right time to attack and jump on their prey with their
06:28 massive bodies and grab them by the neck.
06:33 Courage.
06:35 Lions have no fear when they feel a threat in their territory.
06:39 While lions are hunting, they become fearless among the crowd of all wild animals.
06:44 They promote their dominance among other animals by roaring in the wild savannah.
06:49 A lion has the loudest roar of all the big cats.
06:52 It is so loud that it can reach 114 decibels, which is equal to the noise level of a chainsaw
07:08 and can be heard from 5 miles away.
07:11 As the largest member of the cat family, tigers are strong, powerful and one of nature's
07:18 most feared predators.
07:20 Their record body force, lethal claw swings, a huge body, thick fur, their equipment, incredible
07:26 abilities and they are aware of this.
07:29 They do not have fear against any creature that they can see.
07:35 Stamina.
07:36 Relatively small heart and lungs, lions are not marathon runners.
07:41 This big cat is not able to sustain a high speed for a long term, especially when twisting
07:46 and turning.
07:47 They can reach a speed of 50 miles per hour, but they can keep this pace for not more than
07:52 200 meters.
07:54 Lions have a lot of stamina and that's why they are known as the ambush predator.
07:59 Lions are aware what they are capable of and they use what they have intelligently.
08:04 Lions use their energy wisely.
08:10 Tigers also don't have high stamina, but we should keep in mind that physically a tiger
08:15 is bigger than a lion.
08:17 It will require more energy to move a bigger body.
08:21 That's why tigers must be careful about their stamina while searching and hunting for prey
08:25 animals.
08:26 Tigers usually live in rainforests and they usually act slowly to save energy to attack
08:31 prey animals more agile.
08:37 This was tough creatures.
