On the topic of bear vs lion this question has been answered, and John was heading in the right direction, but not far enough. During the California gold rush there were animal fights set up to entertain prospectors. The audience quickly got tired of the bears easily killing everything put before them, caribou, bulls, etc. So they shipped in African lions as they thought they might have a chance, and while they looked and sounded impressive, the bears easily crushed their skulls, and the lions had no way of attacking the bears effectively. A bear's hide and bones are both far too thick for a lion to damage them significantly. <br><br>Also John needs to respect moose more, a moose is significantly scarier than a cape buffalo. Cape buffalo are herd animals, scared of being isolated, always looking for safety in numbers, a moose can and will charge an adult male salmon fed kodiak bear without a second thought if it looks at it sideways.,(reply>), Thanks for watching!<br>lets interact directly via above number.<br>got more updates and info for you.,(reply>), Thanks for watching!<br>lets interact directly via above number.<br>got more updates and info for you.
