Before deciding to make a comparison of the combat power of tigers and lions, Liu Wei recalled in his mind the comparison of several types of beasts that he had done before.

They are the comparison of the combat power of poisonous snakes, the comparison of tiger and leopard, the comparison of the combat power of the Great White Shark Bay crocodile and the comparison of the combat power of the Hippo Nile crocodile.

The first few popular science effects were ideal, and the audience agreed with Liu Wei's objective analysis.

However, the protagonist of this comparison is a little different from the previous ones.

It's not just that the two big cats are famous, but that the audience loves them to the point where they are subjectively swayed.

Therefore, no matter which side Liu Wei leans towards, he will be mercilessly attacked by the other side.

After careful consideration, Liu Wei decided to add two prerequisites before comparing the strength of the two, and to do popular science more objectively.

Liu Wei said: "I know you can't wait, the lion and tiger dispute can be said to be a controversial topic.

Before I compare the data between the two, I have to make the most scientific assumptions.

First of all, we must be aware of the common sense, there is a big difference between the living environment of lions and tigers, and the chance of meeting each other face-to-face is almost zero.

In the evolutionary history of large land mammals, both lions and tigers are the most successful examples of evolution.

In areas where lions flourish, other cats are at a relative disadvantage, for example, the total number of lion fossils unearthed in Europe and North America is significantly larger than that of leopards, jaguars, saber-toothed tigers, and sawtooth tigers of the same period.

Of course, one of the most important reasons is that lions like to live in groups, and when we compare strengths, we mainly talk about individual combat capabilities.

Judging from the range of fossils that have been excavated, lions have not been active in East Asia, and many scientists believe that the closed environment of East Asia, mainly mountainous terrain, is not suitable for lions, and it happens that this kind of terrain is more suitable for tigers.

Based on years of fossil excavation and research, we have found that tigers and lions always adopt the separation of ecological niches in the process of radiation and dispersal to avoid direct competition, and it seems that God has given the limit of power when creating these two types of species, each king and not interfering with each other!"

"It seems to be true!"

"Is there really a God?"

"Ah Wei is just an analogy, don't be serious!"

"The combat ability of individual soldiers must be strong in tigers!"

"It's still the same sentence, the perm can't do the tattoo!"

"Hahaha! Tiger is a social!"

The atmosphere in the live broadcast room is relatively harmonious.

Liu Wei smiled: "Just from the comparison of the body size of the two types of animals known to humans, we can find that in fact, the average size of the lion subspecies is larger than that of tigers, of course, this is also because the Malayan tiger, Javan tiger and other subspecies are too small, which lowers the average level of the entire tiger family, and the adult male Siberian tiger and the adult Malayan tiger are almost twice the size of the latter."

On the other hand, although the African lion is the largest species, the gap between the other subspecies and it is not as large as that between the tiger species.

The size of the beast is directly related to its strength, so if we compare the Malayan tiger with the African lion, it is obviously unfair, and the difference in strength is obvious.

So, here we compare the two largest subspecies, the African lion and the Siberian tiger, to their individual combat capabilities!"

"That's okay!

"Do you still use comparison? Siberian tiger directly seconds African lions!"

"You fart, the African lion is very strong, okay?"

"The lion blowing has started again, there is no team battle of the lions, can you win the Siberian tiger alone?

"Didn't you say the Siberian tiger? Why did you get to the Siberian tiger again?"

"Get out! You illiterate! Shut up if you don't know common sense!"

"Hahaha!

"Brothers, calm down first!", Liu Wei calmed the audience's emotions, "We use the most professional and objective data to analyze!"

"First of all, let's imagine what it would be like for the African lion and the Siberian tiger, two beasts that have never met before, to meet each other?

"Confused!"

"Tiger: Grandma's, this guy has more hair than Lao Tzu!"

"Lion:, if you encounter social prostitution, what should you do?"

"Lion: Are you coming?"

"Tiger: If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move!"

Liu Wei had to admire the audience's brain circuits, full of pictures, and couldn't help but smile, but the audience's ideas were not groundless, on the contrary, although it was just an entertaining barrage interaction, it was most in line with the characters of the two beasts.

Liu Wei said: "When lions and tigers face unfamiliar opponents, they will look at their opponents and evaluate their strength.

Taking lions as an example, in the savannah, in addition to their size, male lions will evaluate the strength of their opponents mainly by paying attention to their manes, and in their consciousness, the denser the mane, the stronger the strength.

If the lion encounters the tiger, it will not be able to evaluate the strength of the tiger with the most intuitive judgment standard, and the scene we see should be, fighting hatred, and the lion roars to test the tiger.

On the other hand, the tiger has a very comprehensive level of assessing the strength of the opponent, and scientific research has found that its assessment of the opponent's strength is more accurate than that of humans.

Obviously, when a lion and a tiger meet, the tiger can accurately assess the strength of the lion, and then make preparations for attack or defense.

It means that the battle has not yet begun, and the tiger has already gained the upper hand in terms of psychological preparation!"

"Damn, the tiger still has such an ability!"

"I've never heard of it being able to assess the strength of opponents before!"

"You haven't heard much of it!"

"Ah Wei, let's directly compare the combat effectiveness!"

Liu Wei looked at the audience's impatient barrage and said: "The criterion for determining the combat effectiveness of beasts is their physical condition, and we won't mention the size!"

First, let's compare the heads of an African lion and a Siberian tiger!

The male lion's head is larger than that of a tiger because of the visual confusion effect of the mane, but in fact, when the mane is removed, the size of the head of the two is almost the same.

As we mentioned earlier, the male lion will observe the mane to evaluate the strength of the opponent, it can be said that the mane can represent the combat effectiveness of a male lion, but it is only a symbolic sign in the same species, not as many people think, the mane has a decisive role in actual combat.

It can only provide some defense, after all, cats like to bite off their opponents' necks to end the fight, but the mane will also weaken the lion's offensive ability, so to speak, the performance is decent.

In terms of skull size alone, African lions and tigers are equally divided.

Next, let's compare a physiological part that is particularly important in the actual combat process - the capacity of the heart!"
