Top Ten Animals That a Lion Should Fight

The Top Ten
1 Tiger The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest living cat species and a member of the genus Panthera. It is most recognisable for its dark vertical stripes on orange fur with a white underside. An apex predator, it primarily preys on ungulates such as deer and wild boar. It is territorial and generally a solitary but social predator, requiring large contiguous areas of habitat, which support its requirements for prey and rearing of its offspring. Tiger cubs stay with their mother for about two years, then become independent and leave their mother's home range to establish their own. ...read more.

If it's a black bear, then the lion wins. If it's a brown or grizzly bear however, then make way for the new king of beasts.

I agree, people think lions are stronger than they really are. Bears would win 90% of the time

I doubt a lion can ever defeat a grizzly bear.

6 Hyena Hyenas or hyaenas are any feliform carnivoran mammals of the family Hyaenidae /haɪˈɛnᵻdiː/. With only four extant species, it is the fifth-smallest biological family in the Carnivora, and one of the smallest in the class Mammalia.

According to a 2014 study, the lifespan of great white sharks is estimated to be as long as 70 years or more, well above previous estimates, making it one of the longest lived cartilaginous ...read more.

Will they fight on land or in water? Death will be due to suffocation or drowning, not because of the battle injuries.
