Tigers are one of the top carnivores in nature. In their native environment, they have no natural predators and stand at the top of the food chain.

In the present day, whenever we talk about tigers, the comparison with lions is usually inseparable.

In fact, there is no point in comparing these two animals, because in the wild, lions and tigers do not have any chance to meet each other.

Even the tigers that were put into the tiger valley in South Africa have no record of fighting with lions.

This is because there are differences between males and females, differences in the length of time they have been in captivity, differences in subspecies, differences in wildness, and so on.

Therefore, the so-called lion and tiger battles do not represent the real strength of wild tigers and lions.

Both lions and tigers are kings in their respective fields. So today, let's talk about why tigers are so powerful.

The Northeast tiger has long been the largest extant feline.

The wild Northeast tiger is found mainly in Siberia and the northeast of China.

In the same habitat, the most powerful opponent of the Northeast tiger is the bear family.

Among the bear family, the Asian black bear and Asian brown bear have a high degree of overlap with the Northeast tiger.

The bear family is one of the few animals that can compete with the feline family under the order Carnivora.

Being able to hunt and kill adult bear family animals heavier than themselves is the true strength of the Northeast Tiger.

Therefore, the Northeast tiger hunting bears is enough to show its strength.

The size of the Bengal tiger and the Northeast tiger is not much different.

In addition, in comparison, the Northeast tiger's front limbs are stronger, while the Bengal tiger's hind limbs are stronger, so the jumping power of the Bengal tiger is stronger than the Northeast tiger.

We believe you have seen the video of the Bengal tiger attacking the man riding on the elephant, this video is real, it is so fierce.

In the native environment of the Bengal tiger, its strongest opponent is the Indian bison.

As one of the largest bison, the adult Indian bison has an average weight of 550 kg.

The male Indian bison is usually solitary, so the solitary male Indian bison becomes one of the main prey of the solitary Bengal tiger.

Of course, it is mostly male Bengal tigers that hunt Indian bison. And when the Bengal tiger selects its prey, it will mostly choose the older bison to attack.

The Bengal tiger is very fast in hunting bison. It will always find an opening and bite the bison's neck to kill it in one blow.

The Sumatran tiger is the smallest extant tiger species.

The average weight of one of the adult males is around 120 kg, while the average weight of females is only around 90 kg.

Although it is the smallest tiger species, rather it is almost similar to the jaguar in terms of weight data.

However, this does not affect its fighting ability at all, as evidenced by its prey.

Its prey is very close to that of the jaguar, mostly coming from near the water.

These include water deer, wild boar, and other hoofed animals, and even crocodiles are its regular prey.

As the dominant animal in the water, the crocodile can be said to be at the top of the food chain.

Among the entire feline family, except for the jaguar which will take the crocodile as a snack, there is only the Sumatran tiger left.

The tiger is one of the most ferocious predators in nature, and among the tigers that exist.

Even the smallest Sumatran tigers are capable of hunting adult crocodiles.

The Northeast tiger is capable of hunting the more ferocious and larger brown bear.

This shows that the tiger's title of "king of all beasts" is not in vain.
