Talk:Animal Face-Off

What the heck happened!?

This show just vanished, apparently. I loved watching this back in `04, but it seemingly vanished since. Does ANYONE know if it still comes on? I`m missing this show desperatly!

no

Biased result

This show does not reflect the real world. First, in Amazon forest, Anaconda cannot handle a jaguar, let alone beating it. Then, grizzly bear brings down Siberian tigers, which is also not true. In Siberia, where tigers and brown bears coexist, brown bears will often try to steal or rob the tiger's kill, but the success rate is low, and the large brown male will choose to take on much smaller female tigress to avoid becoming another tiger's diet item. In Siberia, some tigers feed regurlarly on bears, and one male tiger named Dale is documented for this behaviour in the Siberian tiger project. Now, lion vs nile crocodiles. Crocodiles are known to have digested leopards, but a lion is too much for them, especially a male. In Asia, tigers often kill crocodiles which dare attack them or steal their kills, lions and tigers are about the same size, so this is unlikely true, and in the stomach of nile crocodiles, there has never been a lion reported. And lastly, lions beat tigers. It takes a pride of lions(at least 3) to bring down a buffalo 680kg. It takes a single tiger to bring down a gaur or water buffalo 1000kg. Tigers sometimes attack elephants, and they show no fear toward them. Lions mostly avoid elephants, when an elephant comes across, a pride of lions often have to give way, or the elephant will chase them away anyway. This is no opinion, but observed fact, you can consult naturalists about lion-elephant relationship if in doubt. So clearly, in the wild, tigers have more of an edge, both in strength, skills and courage. This show is just for entertainment purpose. they simulate the attacking force of the animals, but not their skills, courage nor intelligence and potential, and hence the result.

Yeah, I don't agree with the lion vs tiger one either. But I have heard that crocodiles do beat lions and anacondas do beat jaguars occasionally. Not sure 'bout tiger vs bear...211.72.108.18 02:21, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In the Wikipedia anaconda page, it is stated anacondas may eat jaguars. In the Nile crocodile page it is stated that no African land vertebrate is safe from Nile crocodiles (supposing the vertebrate went near water of course) except full-grown elephants and hippopotamuses. Even rhinoceroses are attacked.61.230.72.211 00:57, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
