All the tiger is going to do is circle the hippo until there is an openning to attack. Everyone here seems to think that these fights are a head on charge. They're not. A tiger knows it can't take down a hippo face to face, so he's going to out manuever him. And anyone who tries to tell me that a fatass hippo can turn in a circle as fast as a tiger can circle him is out of his mind.

All the hippo has to do is stand with his back to the wall. His jaws open 6 FEET WIDE.

He can stand there, jaws open, ready to take on the tiger. They are in an enclosed area. The tiger has no way to "sneak up on him." There are no [censored] trees or bushes or rocks or ledges.

The hippo stands there, jaws open, waiting. The tiger gets close, hippo snaps its jaws. His teeth are nearly 2 GODDAMN FEET LONG. One bite from the hippo, the tiger is most likely mortally wounded. The tiger needs at least 20+ good claws to kill a hippo. A hippo is too big for the tiger to clamp its neck.

Are people even thinking about this? I mean seriously, you are so sure of yourself and completely wrong.
