While not much is really known about this bear's lifestyle, I've always pictured him as very vicious/aggressive - Agriotherium africanum!

brobear I agree; here is a direct comparison between the two: The Kodiak bear just might come out second best in this brawl.

Smilodon Populator model by "Prehistoric Fauna".I believe that the giant saber-toothed cat, being an ambush predator, would never challenge a bear face-to-face.

The male moon bear takes this one. But no feather for the bear fan's hat.

Note: The wolf would probably represent an average individual from a rather large population (Russia).
Even when there are enough wolves to kill the bear, it is extremely rare that the wolves will risk losing even a single pack member. This, I believe, is where the dog's loyalty comes from.
