Start-Up For Better Animal Face-Off (Medium Sized Animals)
Since the first animal face-off had some weird (and not really close) matchups, and a couple other problems (but an awesome idea by the OP), I figured I would start a thread to brainstorm medium-sized animals to fit together in an exciting OOT face-off (this idea has NOTHING to do with the fact I'm on Pacific right now, with the one table limit and such.....).
Of course, the definition of mid-sized will come up, but once I release the types of animals I think would work I'm sure you'd get the idea. So, until tomorrow afternoon I'll get good ideas for animals and start a poll to weed them down to seedings. Here are some ideas for "mid-sized" animals: bobcat wolverine badger lynx coyote cheetah horse hyena fox kangaroo deer antelope gorilla jaguar panda panther walrus leopard warthog koala bear bighorn sheep I'm sure there are lots of others, but just talk about them and I'll do the post. wanna

Good idea, I was underwhelmed by the matchups in the animal tourney (although yes, great idea).
Put a python in there. Deer, wtf. I saw one tonight, they're cool, but they're like big rabbits.

python's a good idea.
I was just putting various animals in there to gauge size and to let people know what kind of animals are gonna be in it (deer would lose to everything). wonder how a pitbull would do....

Pit bull is good.
Warthog good too. I really wanna see gorilla in there. Walrus is really big compared to the others. I would have liked to see it in the other tourney. It's probably at least 4x the size of the next biggest in this list though. GL, I'm looking forward to this event.

I think UFC man needs to appear again. I would consider him a medium sized animal. He was unfairly put in that bracket. He may have a chance to win one here providing he gets a good matchup.

[/ QUOTE ] Deer attack more people than any other wild animal in Amercia, I think I read. They're very territorial and aggressive in mating season. And they're still wild animals. I wouldn't want horns backed by hundreds of pounds of angry animal muscle driven into my guts, that's for sure.

Wolf v. pitbull [/ QUOTE ] That might be kind of interesting. The largest wolves have long since vanished from the earth, but wolves have far bigger and stronger jaws than dogs do, and pitbulls have jaws that lock and are incredibly powerful. One is a wild, nature-hardened animal that lives by killing, and the other is a usually smaller animal purpose-bred for fighting. Actual death matches between animals strike me as incredibly wrong -- except for insects I guess, which I pretty much hate -- but as far as just being curious goes, I think it might be an interesting fight, depending on the size of the animals, since some pitbulls and wolves are much bigger than others.
