Human v Chimp fight

It's only the size of a labrador. And I'd fight one of those :D

He sustained serious injuries but managed to choke out the mountain lion. From the story he got lucky and turned as it pounced.

Chimp would do both the cat and the runner. Then masturbate openly :p

Oh my god how is this possible, an adult male killing a big Cat slightly smaller than a Chimp but far more equipped to kill other animals?!
Yeah but a chimp would have ripped its balls off, eaten its face, and tea bagged its corpse in half the time, whilst sustaining no injuries.

Wonder what they do with all the balls. Maybe they collect them as trophies...

I had a playful tom cat that used we used to let in the house a few years ago, I think it belonged to someone near by, it used to go mental when ever it went near my gym bag for some reason - he'd roll on his back and get his claws and teeth out, he'd kick with his back legs which are obviously sharp and basically go into fight mode (he was actually pretty chill most of the time but yeah). At that point I realised how little chance a human would stand against a big cat. Fair play to this guy for not becoming a meal.

It's not normally the healthy ones that attack tho.

It can be abandoned pets (believe it or not...), injured/starving, etc.

Normally the healthy ones are off hunting whatever they normally eat and avoiding humans.

Former pets are especially sad cases. They have no idea how to hunt and view humans as friendly.
 
A Cougar that isn't a cub/ill would totally destroy any chimpanzee, it wouldn't even be a fair contest, anyone thinking otherwise needs to have a word with themselves.

From the sounds of the attack, the Cougar was a small juvenile (36KG) which is probably the only reason the runner managed to survive, if it had been fully grown - he'd have almost certainly been toast.

Interestingly, the Leopard is the top predator of Chimpanzees, they routinely kill and eat fully grown ones, Lions occasionally prey on Chimpanzees too.

Makes you appreciate Silverback Gorillas more as they're capable of fighting a Jaguar with their bare hands.
 
Bears>all!

/thread
Nope:
Don't know about grizzlies specifically, but this Quora thread has some interesting references about lions vs lots of stuff. I was surprised to see that lions almost always get the better of Tigers (which I had thought were bigger), but also that they have the beating of eurasian bears, which they find easier to deal with than tigers.

I remember reading a story a few years back about a 60 year old African bushman who killed a Lion that attacked him, all he had was a pointy stick.

Changed my mind, Human with Pointy Stick>Everything else...

Lets face it, it doesn't matter how big strong or scary an animal is, Humans are the dominant (non insect) species on the planet for a good reason and no it isn't just because we breed quickly! gigady gigady goo.....

I agree one v one we are not that hard core (unless we have a pointy stick) but as a species we are pretty bad arse!

I'm willing to bet that never happened.

we breed quickly!

We really don't. 9 months gestation, and typically only one child at a time. Wolves breed far more quickly than we do (2 months gestation; litter of 4-6) and they're not even the fastest among mammals.
