714, who is more powerful, tiger or lion

After listening to Remandy's introduction, Rosaria and the others couldn't help but nod, admiring the introduction of knowledge just now.

"Sir, what animal are we going to see next?" asked Rosalia, looking at the black guide.

"Let's go see the lion, if we're lucky, maybe we can see the scene of the lion catching prey, that scene, you watch it once, you will never forget it. The tour guide smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"What kind of prey do lions usually catch?" said Rosaria, suddenly interested.

"As long as it can eat, it will hunt for food. The tour guide said.

"You mean it even dares to eat elephants?" asked Rosaria, tilting her head, looking like an innocent girl.

"Absolutely. The guide nodded.

"Oh my God, how does it deal with those huge elephants?" Rosalia looked curious.

"The lion's bite ability is very strong, the limbs are also particularly strong and powerful, it often takes advantage of the prey is not paying attention, from behind the attack, once it is entangled with the prey, then the prey will be bitten by it, even the hind foot pedal is very strong bison is no exception, even if the lion's head is thrown out by the elephant or bison, it will continue to persistently chase the prey. The tour guide introduced.

"In fact, lions are social animals, and they have a very clear division of labor when hunting prey, who is responsible for attracting the attention of the prey, who is responsible for feints, who is responsible for attacking, and their division of labor is very clear, just like a group of well-trained warriors. At this time, Officer Lemandy on the side also added.

"Who is more powerful, the tiger or the lion? Suddenly, Rosaria's female assistant couldn't help but ask in unison.

"A lion, of course. The black guide didn't hesitate.

"No, man, it's a tiger. Remandy corrected in due course.

"Hey, sir, don't be kidding me, is a tiger as powerful as a lion?" the black guide looked incredulous, "Look at the lion's sideburns, it doesn't look majestic, in my opinion, the tiger is just a big cat." ”

"Brother, there are no tigers in Africa, you naturally admire lions, but in fact, tigers are far more powerful than lions. Raymandy said with a grimace.

"Hey, man, tell me your reasoning. The black guide was a little unconvinced.

"First of all, man, a tiger is bigger than a lion. "Adult male tigers can reach 3.3 meters in length and weigh more than 300 kilograms, I have seen the data, the largest tiger was captured in the former Soviet Union in a republic in Central Asia, with a body length of 4 meters and a weight of 780 kilograms, which is twice the size of ordinary lion tigers! At present, there are only two major subspecies of lions: the African lion and the Indian lion. (The cougar is actually a mistake for the American lynx, which is the largest cat of the genus, and it belongs to the same genus as our domestic cat, and is more closely related.) The Indian lion is smaller and nearly extinct, and we often see the African lion. Adult African male lions are generally 2.3-2.7 meters long and weigh about 250 kilograms. ”

"Since the size of the animals usually determines their strength, the sheer strength of the adult Siberian tiger, the Siberian tiger, is superior to that of most African lions. In terms of appearance, they all have terrifying fangs and sharp teeth, and their common characteristics are that they have powerful jaws, cracked teeth, and great power when biting, and this huge force can be used to kill large animals. In detail, lions, especially male lions, have exaggerated heads and faces due to their manes, and their bodies appear thin, while tigers have a majestic body with a slightly delicate head. The African male lion looks very powerful, all because of a mane, so the visual head is very large, but the hunting skills are relatively poor, and the endurance and speed are also very lacking. The mighty tiger also has similar long hair when it is an adult, and it has long hairs on its face and neck, and its appearance is not inferior to that of male lions. And from the perspective of individual hunting skills, tigers have both strength and speed, can swim in trees, and have a high success rate of hunting alone, while lions fight in groups, and the efficiency of lionesses is much higher than that of male lions.

"It is said that in ancient Roman times, lions and tigers were used to fight in arenas, and as a result, the tiger defeated the lion every time. Scientists in the former Soviet Union once experimented with two hungry lions and tigers of the same sex and body to fight each other, and the tiger won. Some geographers and zoologists have suggested that lions were also present in many parts of Asia in ancient times. But why is it now gone? The tiger expelled the lion from the mountains and forests where the living conditions were comfortable and convenient, and drove it to the deserts and grasslands of northwestern India, the Arabian Peninsula and Africa. Geographically, the tiger is based in Siberia and travels from Eurasia to the South Asian subcontinent, developing into the Bengal tiger subspecies, the Caucasian tiger subspecies, and the South China tiger subspecies, only the sea prevents it from entering the Americas. Some individuals crossed the South China Sea into the Indonesian archipelago and developed into the Sumatran tiger subspecies. Showing tenacious resilience from extreme cold to extreme heat, the tiger moves alone, only during the breeding season the male and female spend a few days together, and the female tiger raises her cubs independently. It shows that the survival ability of tigers is stronger than that of lions. From the continent, the African lion travels north into the Arabian Peninsula and into the South Asian subcontinent. Historically, there has been a lion and tiger competition in India, although there is no written record, but the lion eventually retreated to the northwest corner of India (called the Asiatic lion), and the Bengal tiger spread throughout South and Southeast Asia. ”

When Remandy said this, he was not at all flustered or out of breath, as if he was a real zoologist, and naturally, his words made the black guide who had been working on the grassland also dumbfounded.

The black guide seldom even spoke during the subsequent tour, lest his words be corrected again by the "famous zoologist" Mr. Lemandy.

I have to say that driving a car on the prairie is a very fun thing, in some places where the geological hardening is more severe, the speed can even reach 100 kilometers per hour, and the wind with hot air blows on the face, making people feel that it is both cool and hot, and there is really a feeling of ice and fire.

However, today's luck was not good, according to the tour guide, the lions just seen should have only eaten for a long time, so they were not interested in anything.

"The lion's personality is like this, and he is much more lazy than the tiger. Remandy said again.
