Colonel Maitlaud, is a british officier. He says that he have hunted Grizzly bears and he firmly claims that tiger is not 'king of carnivora' since a rocky mountain grizzly bear can beat him. "The Colonel states, "I can prove it. I have hunted in the Rocky mountains, and i can frankly state that the grizzly bear can whip any tiger that ever trod a nullah."

Now here is from Russian biologists. Among them all, the best one is from biologist krechmar because he not only favours a LARGE BEAR OVER A LARGE TIGER, but also debunks the opposite claim by calling it "not even based on facts"! kiowa-mike.livejournal.com/6553231.html "A LARGE TIGER HAS LITTLE CHANCE AGAINST A LARGE BEAR".

From Dale miquelle, an amur tiger authority. He does not know any of the 4 cases. Dale Miquelle:"I also don't know of a case where an adult male brown bear has been killed by a tiger".

Even the Amur tiger centre, an organisation dedicated to tiger studies, does not even know any of the case.
So anyone who think those unauthentic accounts as true is no more than a fantansy.

HERE ARE SOME OPINIONS FROM AN ANIMAL DEALER: trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/33198135?searchTerm=Bears%20are%20better%20fighters%20than%20lions "Supposing all the animals in the "zoo" at Regent's Park were to begin a fight to the death, who would be the ultimate victor? A well known animal dealer votes for the elephant. His trunk is his weapon, and he is the hardest hitter with it of all the animals"
"In a lion and tiger fight, one would hardly back Leo, for he is generally several stones lighter than the tiger"
"The grizzly bear is a formidable foe. He can punch like no animal save the elephant, one blow of his stupendous paw will break a horse's back, and when he clinches to avoid punishment, his hug will crush anything living. Besides this, nothing can break his pluck. He will fight as long as he can see or stand, and he is a glutton for punishment. None of the cat tribe could stand a tenth of the pounding which the grizzly takes without turning a hair. As an offset to the useful qualities i have enumerated, the bear is slow on his feet, and his eye is not good".

This is from the same book as reply #22, The minds and manners of wild animals, by William Temple Hornaday, American zoologist and conservationist. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Temple_Hornaday And here you can really see the great difference in behavior of bears and felines: "At the New York zoological park, a male jaguar killed a female jaguar, "he had determined to murder her, but had cunningly concealed his purpose until his victim was fully in his power".
"Bears usually fight "on the square" openly and above-board, rarely committing foul murder. If one bear hates another, he attacks at the very first opportunity. He does not cunningly wait to catch the offender at a disadvantage and beyond the possibility of rescue. Sometimes a captive bear kills a cage-mate or mauls a keeper, but not by the sneaking methods of the human assassin who shoots in the dark and runs away."

Colonel Dodge: Colonel in the United States Army: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Irving_Dodge "Colonel Dodge expresses the best opinions upon this point in saying that "when wounded, a grizzly bear attacks with utmost ferocity, and regardless of the number and nature of his assailants. Then he is, without a doubt, the most formidable and dangerous of wild beasts."
"The native warrior wore his claws as a badge of honor."

VALENTIN FILATOV-SOVIET BEAR TRAINER en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentin_Filatov_(bear_trainer)"Bears are the most dangerous and deadly of all circus animals and the most difficult and time-consuming to train."
"Unlike the lions and tigers who have frequent forthright flashes of temper, bears are given to secret brooding and unexpected attacks."
He notes that a displeased lion or tiger will give a few prefatory snarls, and an angry elephant will sway its trunk before he charges, "but you never know what bears are thinking or when they are planning to tear you to pieces."
"Bears strike without warning, and their strength is so formidable that one strike of a paw can kill a man. And, once enraged, they are almost impossible to stop."
"If you are being attacked by a lion you can hold out a chair and the beast will bite at it. But a bear will bat the chair away, move in swiftly and bite you."

CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, BEARS ARE BETTER FIGHTERS, MORE VICIOUS, AND MORE FORMIDABLE THAN TIGERS. THEY PROTECT THEIR HEAD IN A FIGHT.

“TIGER TECHNIQUE OF COMBAT ISNT GOOD ENOUGH IF ANTAGONIST IS TO BE A BEAR”.
“A TIGER CAN STILL KILL A MAN, BUT COMES OFF SECOND BEST IN A BATTLE AGAINST A BEAR”.
"BEARS ARE HEAVILY FURRED AND CAREFUL BATTLERS".
