That tiger just casually carrying that warthog. Either one of them is in the wrong place or the tiger went extremely out of its way to get a fancy meal lol.
That tiger is from Tiger Canyons (South Africa) a private reserve that keeps tigers in a semi-wild state, in contact with some native species from the area.
@@stevenelbert8989 There are two tiger reserves in South Africa; Laohu Valley (South China Tigers) and Tiger Canyons (Bengal x Siberian mixed tigers), the tiger of the video belongs to the last one.
Sounds like you haven’t heard of the lion man eating stories. There was one single lion that killed about 130 people before they finally managed to hunt it down. See lions have been documented doing something tigers very rarely do and that’s specialising. The lion I mentioned in Kenya had a broken tooth so couldn’t hunt big game, we don’t how or when but at some point it started going after people to feed and figure out that it hunting us is the easiest thing in the world. That lion literally went into a village at night, fell through the roof of a hut and dragged a poor dude into the night without anyone able to do a thing. And it would do this pretty much every other night or so. There was also the case of when the British constructed a railway and construction had to come to halt because an entire pride was hunting the workers and they weren’t willing to work anymore. Tigers to my knowledge are much more opportunistic while lions will often specialise in certain preys and get very good at hunting them. So usually if a wild lion starts going after people you have to hunt it because it will not stop until its life expired and if its a pride then oh boy
@@A_Randomguy_ said to have killed or officially recorded to have killed ? Cause then I can say that some people say a lion killed 10 000 people because statistically there is someone stupid enough to say that making me technically right but is the information then correct? Absolutely not. So yo account for hear say Id say the actual number is probably around 100 similar to the lion I mentioned and again that lion stopped there cause they found it which actually took a really long time to do and it would have continued until it died or got killed so it could have easily reached the 500s had it not been caught. I remember that story was scary cause not only that lion got as bold as breaking into huts at night dragging people put while the rest watched and yet they sent I don’t know how many hunters after it that lion was impossible to find. Meaning it wasn’t just good at hunting but also at avoiding hunters, I wouldn’t want to less with that lion 😂 not that’d Id want to mess with a tiger either 😂 same outcome really
One tiger? Bruh theres documented cases of entire prides of lions specialising in hunting people, cant blame them tho its like taking candy from a child
@@dreammaker9642 you do bring up a good point since I forgot about the killer lions in the 19th century. However I'd still give the edge to the tiger, so I'd say let's agree to disagree
@@StarB0rne they really interchangeable, even when we talk about which is stronger 😂 theres arguments for both but where I must give it to lions is the pride factor. Dealing with one tiger or lion/lionesses is already a lost cause so a bunch of them is a definite return to the main menu. That being said if tigers started hunting in prides then that’d be my queue to find a new planet to inhabit cause hell no
@@StarB0rne I agree 👍....I think tigers are more likely than any other big cat to kill people, they see 👀 us as prey more than lions 🦁 leopards but at the same time lions 🦁 and leopards are the most aggressive big cats, but hunting people is something that tigers enjoy more
Unlike Lions, The Bengal Tigers actively go out of their range to human villages and hunt humans. Specially old tigers. They see us as easy food source. It got to the point that people started wearing masks behind their head just so the tiger thinks its being watched and do not stalk people.
The face mask is a very old technique, and it's not restricted to Bengal tigers. Plus, Bengal tigers don't usually see humans as prey, just as a last resort, because humans don't provide enough food for the tigers.
@@sulemanhaider1305 Facemask might be old technic. But Tigers specially in the Sundarbans do see human as a food source. Because its not only weak and old tigers but also young and powerful tigers also hunt humans. Tigers realised that humans aren't really fast and can't really cause much damage to them. So it does not take much of their energy to hunt us. Which is why even healthy tigers raid human villages from time to time. But they mostly hunt humans when they venture into their territory. There have a news few months ago that an adult male tiger attacked two fishermans. They weren't even in the land. They were in rivers, on a boat. Still Tiger attacked and killed them. So yeah, for Bengal tigers, we are easy to hunt food source. Things might be different for Siberian Tigers.
@@sulemanhaider1305a single human could provide more than enough food for a tiger, humans weigh about half as much as the average tiger, if a tiger could eat a whole human in one sitting that’d be like eating a human eating 150 Big Macs all in one sitting, tigers will usually only really avoid humans because humans can be very dangerous and if they catch it then it’s over
That's a good list. Though, not technically, a "big" cat, the cougar/puma/mountian lion of the America's is a very dangerous cat at 200ish lbs. Lots of unprovoked attacks.
@@ianlim4404the puma is not a big cat, at least nit taxonomically speaking but now if you want to call it a big cat that’s fine, being wrong isn’t against the law or something so do as you please. Although these days taxonomy relies a lot more on genetics because well its more accurate. Big cats genetics aside are more characterised by their ability to roar which other cats cant do, except for the snow leopard which is an odd exception but if Im not mistaken the genetics follow so. Perhaps it just ditched the ability to roar after diversion from other members of the genus but then Im speculating.
@@ianlim4404 I don't know why cougars aren't considered big cats when they are bigger than leopards and sometimes bigger than jaguars too 🤷 they're in between jaguars and leopards in size ,but can't roar so 🤷they're not considered big cats .....but I always saw them as big cats because they are big
@@ryomensukuna4526 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you right....in Africa some lions 🦁 you can't get past 50 feet with them,they'll send off a warning growl to let you know to not come any closer or else they'll kill you,especially tsavo lions, they don't let people film them ,you can't just roll up and they're laying on their back relaxing, not tsavo lions, they dodge man
dangerous and deadly mean two very different things when talking about wildlife attacks. I learnt this when I received a talk about snakes in school. Here in Australia our snakes pretty much make up the top ten most deadliest snakes but we do not have the most dangerous snakes. This is because deadly = potential to harm or injure and dangerous = how much harm and injury they actually cause. Great video as always and I hope this comment goes some ways to feeding the algorhythm god.
Depends on the animal but honestly the African server is a different beast. See Australia has many dangerous animals with the ability to kill you bu they don’t tend to be that willing to do so. Africa having is a different story, pretty much anything can and has the will to end your life 😂 if you want the panicle of dangerous and deadly look no further than hippos, built to kill and very willing to do so in any situation. A rare case of an animal really believing in equal opportunity ass whoopin
I heard a story of a Tiger who got shot and stalked his assailant for many days until he found his home and ambushed him there. The funny part: the big cat slept apparently in the hunter's bed! Cats being cats...
It's a Siberian tiger generally not dangerous to humans unless someone does something incredibly stupid. The tiger likely passed by other humans, including children, without incident. It destroyed everything with the man's scent on it and killed his dog. It waited for him and killed him. Like dogs, Siberian tigers know the rules... and enforce them. Dogs have much in common with the Big Cats.
It's interesting that man-eating tigers nearly always hunt people that come into wilderness areas in daylight. By contrast man-eating leopards and lions often come into towns and villages at night and may even enter buildings/huts to prey on humans.
Wow, i have been looking for an animal ranking/vs/analysis channel with this level of video quality where i get to enjoy the visuals of the animals on a nice display along with the interesting facts themselves . Keep it up.
@@tessat338what ? Its the opposite buddy 😂 pretty much all cats have retractable claws except cheetahs for a very good reason when you run having semi retractable claws help with grip. Basically if they had normal retractable claws they’d be slipping all over the place when running at high speed. That being said that has nothing to do with being a big cat or not, theres the ability to roar but also genetics. Snow leopards are panthers but cant roar so they the exception. When you think about it, cheetahs are a very strange cat that seem to want to be a dog 😂 running shit down 😂
Interestingly enough a few months ago I heard that they a fur sample in the jungle in Java it was DNA tested and confirmed to be from a Javan tiger so that means that there has to be a tiny population of them left.
I have an idea for the next video but idk if you interested in it: can you do 5 dog breeds that would likely to thrive in the nature if they become wild?
I am from Nepal. People from the hills have started migrating to the plains and cities making what used to be villages to becomes forested. This has caused leopards to frequently roam the villages and attack dogs and livestock. I remember my uncle saying leopard attacked 6-7 dogs in a month.. Luckily no humans attack has happened. In rural hilly areas, lack of human activity is to blame for leopard attack quite contrary to to other places. And I see useless arguments in the internet claiming dogs are stronger than leopard, no they aren't. Leopard is a killing machine, a mini tiger. leopard even came to inside my relative's room where he was sleeping chasing his pet dog and managed to take the dog. Due to less people and many villages heavily forested monkeys, ghorals, leopards even peacocks are thriving.
The dog only surpasses the leopard in strength if the size difference is enormous. A dog weighing around or above 70 kg would beat a 30 kg leopard, and the size variation of leopards is so great that adult populations with specimens of this weight are possible.
I promise there are breeds of dogs outside of Nepal that can kill many leopards. However, if weight is even close, my money is on the leopard. Also, of course you reference the tiger.
Bruh leopards are way too strong for their size 😭 if you ever had the pleasure to touch one or come near one you’ll see that thing is just muscle. I mean climbing a tree is already pretty physical now imagine climbing a tree in record speed while holding up something heavier than you in your mouth. Leopards are just pure evolutionary disrespect 😂
@@jamesnelson8469then you’ve never seen what a leopard can do 😂 leopards are small but they pack a punch, it doesn’t have murder paws as strong as lions but one swipe in the wrong place and its GGs. Theres a reason wild dogs hunt in packs.
I love all of the big badass cats, Tigers,Lions,Leopards,Jaguars & Cheetahs!!! They all have their own characteristics & survival skills & they're very good at what they do!!! Very cool!!! COOL CATS!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Not to be pedantic, but Cheetahs aren't really big cats. They're classified as "lesser" cats, along with species like mountain lions and things like Servals and bobcats.
Well, the animal's temperament influences more than the animals' strength in this case. A leopard is more likely to attack you than any of these cats. And I don't think the bite force makes any difference, any of those big cats can kill you easily. And all these big cats can pierce the skull of their victims if they wish, but they will prefer the neck, anyway their death would be quick and certain. And essentially, the jaguar's bite is weaker than the tiger's and lion's bite.
@paulbrower You are soft and clumsy not all humans are that way. We are no match for big cats but a strong fit and aggressive 200+ lb man who will fight through the pain of a bite can kill even the largest dog 1 on 1
@@paulbrower The dog, you are lucky to be able to fight back. For big cats you should have at least some weapon to defend yourself. Unless, of course, they are not felines that surpass them in strength. Because no matter how much the claws hurt you and cause you to bleed to death eventually, you can kill the cat first. This applies to felines such as lynxes and very small cougars.
@@lev8n Caucasian shepherd dog, excuse me. Dogs singly kill by going for the throat. A dog that can go for the throat kills by attacking the vulnerable neck -- just like a cat.
One thing about Snow leopards, they can be aggressive, I was at a big cat sanctuary once and they had a snow leopard, the guide was telling us about him and showing his small habitat area and when done we moved on, but I crouched down to tie my shoe because it had come untied, with my back to the leopard and I look up and see the guide and group staring at me kind of horrified, and I was like "what's up guys?" and they motioned for me to turn around and when I did the Snow Leopard literally sprung out of nowhere from behind a log onto the side of the cage like full spread, going for me, the guide was like, " as soon as your turned around and crouched to tie your shoe, he was in instant stalk mode on you."
Should have had North America's Mt. Lion in there. Seems we could have knocked off #5 as someone seems to get killed every yr by one. Top 10 List would of been nice. Cheetah probably #10 as they are the Chillest
I would appreciate you going into more deaths about the term“panther“. there seems to be some big discussion on this about what and who these cats are? Great video by the way.
I don't think too many people reaize just how strong & poweful Leopards & Jaguars really are!!! They climb up trees while carrying their heavy prey!!! Now that takes some serious strength!!! And many times Leopards have play Tug of War with Hyenas while taking their prey up the tree & they're lightning fast tree climbers & swimmers also!!! I think they're the most athletic & agile of all of the big cats!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jaguars don't usually climb trees. They are too heavy and they don't need to, because there are no other predators in South America that go after their prey.
@@fransbuijs808 That's probably true, but I've seen them in trees before probably resting in the shade of the tree. They have a stronger bite force than a Leopard but they're not as strong pound for pound or as agile because Leopards climb trees as well as monkeys & they carry prey bigger &;heavier than themselves up trees!!!
Why did you include snow leopards but not cheetahs or cougars? My bad thought it wasn’t apart of the genus panthera can you rank all felidae from weakest to strongest (only wild cats no domesticated cats)
cats are just automatically gorgeous to the human eye/mind.. you woukd think that being predators we humans would view them negatively and with distrust.. but nope.. tiger strolls up and its "awww,chhhchhh shhhh, c'mere ya big fluffy baby..." :-)
You sorted it out well at the end, the tiger is definitely more deadly, lions just have more opportunities. The most deadly animal that ever existed was the Champawat Tigress who chalked up a bodycount of 435 people. That cat saw humans as her food source. The Sunderban tigers are infamous as well.
Ever considered normalizing these numbers to the total population of animals? Could be cool to do a video on deadliest cats vs deadliest cats per capita.
Mountain lions are in the subfamily Felinae which includes them, cheetahs, lynxes, and ever cat smaller than them. While big cats are normally referred to any Felidae in the sub family Pantherinae. Easy way to tell is that “panther” can roar but can’t purr and “feline” can purr but can’t roar. Ps. There a couple exceptions to this rule. For example snow leopards can’t roar but can purr though genetic testing shows their closest relative is the tiger so a snow leopard is a panther or big cat. Cats are weird
@@ianlim4404 it’s generally agreed upon that any member of the Panthera genus is considered a big cat though can extend to the subfamily Pantherinae which the included the clouded leopard (can’t roar or purr) if you were to just use size then both cheetahs and mountain lions would be considered big cat’s as well, even though there much more closely related to your pet cat than to any member of Pantherinae
awesome video Tsuki. without doubt the tiger would kill the Lion due to its size but Lions are crazy! remember the king of jungle (not sure why as compared to Hippo and stuff they tiny)😌
My guess is that even though mountain lions tend to be slightly larger and stronger than leopards, they would rank just below leopards because leopards are much more aggressive to humans.
I did not expect the lion at number 1! I'd have expected the tiger in that spot, precisely because it's the one large cat that naturally views humans as prey.
There are two big cats that are not members of the genus Panthera: cheetah and cougars (AKA mountain lion or puma). They are still considered big cats, however. If you included these two, Cheetahs would be tied with snow leopard because there have been no reported cases of attacks on humans. Cougars would be #3 behind lions and tigers. I'm curious why you didn't include those two big cats.
I am 12 seconds into the video and before I watch I am just going to say in order from least deadly to deadly it’s definitely going to have to be cheetah, Leopard, jaguar, lion, tiger. There’s a chance that the Jaguar might be seen a stronger than a lion in some circles and depending on what aspects of “deadliness” you are measuring. Now let’s see…☺️
Yeah I’d just so much rather encounter a fearful-cowardice tiger, than a god damn fearless head coalition male lion with 2000lbs of violence at his disposal. That makes so much sense. Tell me more. Audacity to even mention jaguars like that while patronizing the king of the beasts. SMH.
@@lizbecker1677 incorrect Cheetahs are in an entirely different genera than cougars Regardless, I wasn't using scientific categorization in my guess, rather a social one
@@jamesnelson8469 Calm your tits the only "2000 pounds of violence" here is coming from you buddy. None of these cats weigh in at anywhere near that amount! What gives?
"Tigers deserve their own space, just like we do." I guess all the people in India and Nepal should move to a nice, safe suburb, while you lecture them from your apartment.
On Safaris in Africa, tourists are in open Jeeps and Lions pass by never attempting to jump in and grab a juicy tourists! Tigers jump on top of hunters elephant, even after they get shot! Swim to the middle of delta, grabs a fisherman silently and swims back for more!
If we consider whole human history, The leopards are the biggest predator of humans, mainly because they are among the big cats “, the most adaptable to preying on primates
Statistics aside, I'd least want to encounter a hungry jaguar over anything else. They're so agile for their size, and have a much stronger bite force than lions. They're said to have a diet of something like 85 species in the Amazon. Seeing videos of them merking Caymans is wild. Tigers are definitely larger and stronger, but jaguars seems much more skilled and lethal on the hunt.
If you don't count contact with humans, and just look at the animals' power and disposition, the tier list would be - Snow Leopard, Leopard, Jaguar, Lion, Tiger.
Uhhhh no it wouldn’t. At all. Take your ignorant tiger nonsense elsewhere. The disposition of the lion: the meanest big cat. The power of the lion? Easily the highest. They control prides and coalitions capable of killing 99.999% of earths land dwellers.
There's also the fat that leopards are extremely elusive and would rather run away from humans and most attacks take place for one of three reasons either hunger due to a wound, they feel cornered/threatened or their territory encompasses a city in witch case children and pets are the only prey items they can find like in Mumbai but even then they tend to hunt feral dogs mostly
I find it interesting how the large cats of the Americas don’t really prey on humans to extent that cats of Asia do. Tigers, despite having a lower population than jaguars, have attack humans far more than jaguars have. And while I’m there are attacks that go unnoticed within tribes in South America, I still think it would still be lower than tiger attacks.
Tsuki: Even though tigers are more deadly to face, lions kill more than double the humans than they do every year. 50% of the comment section: Remember that one really deadly tiger? ☠️
Lions kill more because there’s more of them and come into contact more with humans. But like you said, Tigers actively hunt humans and see them as food. Lions usually don’t, maybe because they have an abundance of food sources
Cheetahs aren't big cats btw. The term big cat doesn't refer to size it refers to a cat that's in the Panthera genus. That includes lions,tigers,jaguars,leopards and snow leopards. Cheetahs don't belong in the Panthera genus so no they ain't big cats.
Snow leopards can roar, pumas can't. Roaring is mandatory to be considered a big cat. Actually, only the five species of the Panthera genus are. No other feline can roar.
A pack of Lions is definitely more dangerous than a Tiger but in terms of aggressiveness think the Tiger is a bit more dangerous. Could argue that the more common contact between Lions and Humans is because of how many people seem to think it's a good idea to willingly seek Lions out compared to Tigers.
There are also strong rumors of man-eating leopards from a couple decades ago. As the story goes, leopards would feast off of the dead bodies of soldiers from the civil wars going on in Africa, and they developed a taste for human flesh. After the wars ended and there were no more bodies for them to consume, the began to track down a hunt live humans, taking them from their sleep.
Did you know jaguars are actually stronger and more dangerous than lepords because jaguars bite through crocodile skin which means he can take a human arm off
You are correct. It is a good thing that they are not usually aggressive with humans. Even a female jaguar would easily take down and kill the strongest male human in seconds.
@@CAM8689 Tigers kill crocodiles and jaguars kill caimans. Lions are not afraid of crocodiles, but are not very good at fighting them.Hippos can kill crocodiles, lions and any other land animal except for elephants and giraffes. They are just too big for even the biggest hippo.
@@tonyprice2256 saltwlater crocs can and have killed tigers also were they overlap........lions are definitely afraid of crocs in water and a major reason why they don't like water
@@CAM8689 Yes. Crocodiles have a clear advantage in the water, and can give lions a hard time even on land. I have seen videos of both situations. I have never seen a lion or even group of lions ever kill a crocodile. But, in India, there was a female tiger that killed a crocodile all by herself, but she broke one of her canine teeth in the process. That was the only injury she suffered in that fight.
It's actually a HUGE evolutional disadvantage to be a threat to humans. While there are around 1,000,000,000 housecats in the world, there are only few big cats left, and they only still exist because the people of the countries they live in have decided not to exterminate them.
Our safari guide said human's aren't really part of lion's diet. We're too salty or so he says. Most of the lions we saw were mostly asleep or procreating. Hippos attack humans more.
