Quote - "In a fight with an immature tiger or an adult tigress, adult male Ussuri brown bears stand a decent chance. If the opponent is an adult male tiger, however, they struggle. More often than not, the male tiger comes out on top. The reason is explained by Aramilev." Well..... Start Splaining. ___________________ Why this is bullcrap. IF a tiger were capable of defeating a full-grown male brown bear in a fight, then he (tiger) would not hesitate to ambush a full-grown male brown bear. Why not? Hundreds of pounds of fresh meat. More food. It would seem logical that the bigger meatier adult male bears should be the tiger's first choice. There are no doubts about tigers ambushing and killing adolescent and adult female brown bears. Why? Because it actually happens. *Note; even a sickly half-starved shatun bear wins every fight against tigers of every sex and age group. I have found no account of a tiger ever killing a shatun bear.

Quote - This video (09:47) was posted some years ago. The new, adapted, version has an English translation, meaning it's easier to understand. So........... Hmmmm......... Why did Peter post it in Russian?

Ochkarik and Chlamida - 2017. Odyr and Misha - 2022. _________________________
In 2017, a large male brown bear was living within a particular location. As hunters began moving in, the bear was not seen again. Nothing unusual in this story, other than the reaction of tiger fanboys jumping to unrealistic conclusions. 5 years later, in 2022, an adult male tiger is believed to have killed a male brown bear - frozen carcass of the 3-year-old juvenile bear on location.

When a tiger or a pack of wolves are found feeding on a bear carcass, there are those who will automatically decide that the bear was killed by the predator. The Truth is, neither wolf nor tiger will walk past a carcass, and continue hunting. Consider this; when I see a Yellowstone grizzly feeding on a bison carcass, I do not automatically assume that the bear killed the bison; although I do consider that possibly he did. When I see a coastal brownie or a polar bear feeding on a huge whale carcass, I do not even consider that possibly the bear had fought and killed the whale out in the cold deep ocean and then drug it up onto shore. So, how might a full-grown boar brown bear die? 1- a bullet. 2- poison (man-made or natural). 3- from injuries due to a train or automobile. 4- killed by a bigger stronger bear. 5- snake bite. 6- shatun - starvation and/or freezing. 7- old age - starvation and/or freezing. 8- shatun (weakened by hunger)- killed by wolves then found by tiger. *Fact; when a tiger is found feeding on a bear carcass, this only proves that a tiger will consume bear flesh. Nothing more. When bear flesh is found in bear droppings, this only proves that a tiger will consume bear flesh. Nothing more.

This is how a big male tiger ambushes an adult brown she-bear. However, the bear is never taken in a frontal attack as pictured, but always ambushed from behind or from cover from one side. The only way that a tiger attacks a brown bear is to take her completely unaware. One bite to the neck at the base of the skull will usually kill the bear quickly.
