300 kg lion


In that case finding a 280kg, 600 lb wild lion is not that hard, anything above 400 lbs is rare for any tiger.

The blow caught the hyena high up on the side of its head, and the force of it lifted it into the air. It landed six feet away and rolled over once, its neck broken and the life already gone from it. The dust began to settle again.

swiped one of the hyena a tremendous blow with a front paw and slashed its neck wide open. The lioness pounced on to the animal and bit deeply into the back of its neck, killing it instantly. The second hyena got the message and sprinted

Umnandi literally fell upon the hyena, and with one 'o blow of her great paw blotted him out of existence. Next :* instant she was on the bank again by the side of her bab

The popular belief that a tiger slinks away should he fail in his attack is erroneous, as also the belief that he can kill his prey by a stroke of the paw. I have never seen anything to support this belief,nor is it held by natives.

Mr. Inverarity believes that animals killed by tigers suffer little beyond the panic of a few seconds. The shock produces a stupor and dreaminess in which there is no sense of pain or feeling of terror. The powerful stroke of the fore paw of the tiger is a fiction ; he clutches with his claws as one might with the fingers, but does not strike a blow.

The idea of a tiger killing large game by a blow from his paw is nonsense; besides, in India a tiger never faces his prey, but attacks him on the frank, unless charged

In some of the old natural history books we were told that both the lion and the tiger killed their prey by breaking the neck with a single blow of their powerful fore-paws,but this is certainly not the method employed by the tiger
