[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I abstained from voting in the first match up, as the contestants are ridiculous. [/ QUOTE ] Never [censored] with a tiger... scrub [/ QUOTE ] Oh, but [censored] with a hippo? Yea, that's real good advice. You're lucky there aren't any hippos in Berkeley, or you'd be screwed. [/ QUOTE ] The hippo thing was a travesty. But what's done is done. The lion is toast. scrub |

[ QUOTE ] It seems the consensus in all these threads is mostly "cat beats anything" no matter what size the cat is. [/ QUOTE ] Found this via google: "Juvenile or full grown elephants are not considered to have any natural predators; however, their young sometimes fall victim to lions. It has even been documented that when water is very scarce (water holes less than 4 inches deep), a pride of lions will attack and kill a full grown elephant." [/ QUOTE ] yeah, but one of them alone doesnt stand a chance. |

Yeah, a pride can do things a single animal or even a few of them can't, just like with wolf packs.
But they still need fortune in their favor, and still can pay a huge price even if they both kill the elephant and are still alive afterward. A lion with a broken jaw or a lame leg is basically just waiting to die. Worse, their own pack often turns on them and torments them, making the injury even more debilitating. |

We should let both cats take on the elephant in the finals.

[ QUOTE ]
Seedings held true in the first round. Looks like someone seeded it well in spite of his total ignorance. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, but they were not very accurate. 1. Elephant 2. Rhino...... these two are way ahead 3. Lion 4. Tiger...... close match 5. Hippo 6. Croc 7. Grizzly..... next group 8. UFC Champion (seriously... what animal is a human going to kill with his bare hands) Not sure if the croc could beat the cats, I don't think so, but that is the only potential upset I can see. According to the discovery channel challenge thing that someone linked to in the original post, the elephant pretty much destroys this entire list without much trouble, with the possible exception of the rhino (it woulden't say). FWIW, my mother used to work as a volunteer tour guide at the Philly zoo. She said the zoo workers feared the elephants more than any other animal, and it wasn't close. |

Elephants are smart, too, which makes them even scarier.

write in votes:
Hippo Rhino There, all better. Seriously. A frigging cat over two giant bad asses? People are stupid. (Of course, the same could be said for me. Why do I care about this travesty so much?) [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

How could a croc even conceivably hurt a full sized elephant? I predict that being 90/10 elephant. [/ QUOTE ] the same way the lion beat the rhino i guess. this tourney is bogus |
