Siberian Tiger vs Grizzly Bear? Which would win in a fight to the death?

[Physics-Man]

This is assuming both are healthy and average representations of their kind.

Tiger

Bear

Tiger. Cats are ultimate hunters among land animals. Their claws are longer and sharper and a tiger's 300-350 kg weight contains lot of muscle mass. Bears are omnivores and rather survivalists in extreme climate. Even if usual brown bear male is 100kg heavier than a tiger, brown bear muscle mass is similar due fat tissue and bigger digestive system. Tigers have more dangerous scissor teeth and longer fangs, because tiger are predominantly hunters. Bears are predominately scavengers and rarely hunt animals with similar mass like elks or deer when they are younger. Their teeth are less offensive due omnivorous diet of bears.
Conclusion: Bears and Tigers are very even competitors but tigers are fitter and have better offensive weapons, bears are heavier. However I think tiger's chances to win a fight against a bear are slightly higher. In Siberia tigers hunt sometimes for younger brown bears but I think a tiger would avoid a fight with a mature brown bear male.

The Bear have no chance vs a tiger, tigers are more agresive, brave, fast, flexible, they can walk in the snow whidout making a sound.
Theyr roar is in my opinion like a motorcycle that coming over you.
Tigers are not afraid to attak elefants.
A bear run some time even from humans, they don't attak if they don't need to.
Bear attak when they feel in danger, hungry, or schare theyr childs.
A tiger attak you if you are on its teritory, if you get closer then a certain distance from them, if you attak them, or theyr childs. Tigers don't hibernat. Bear do it on the winter.
Tigers can jump higher then the bear and can use more properly even the legs in theyr attak.
Tigger feets and arms are so strong that even when the tigger die they are still able to stay on them for some more time. They can die on theyr feets for real.
If a bear stay on 2 feet will fighting a tiger that i a death bear.

Oh that's a hard one, but I'd say the tiger, despite there being so many ways one could argue that favours either side.

Normally, when it comes to two predators facing off, I'd give the edge to the heavier ones and think that one, would outpower the ones who weighs less.

I think the bear would outweigh the tiger, but I think that due to the way the tiger is built, it utilises it's limbs better and may make it awkward for the bear to fight it, whilst the tiger could land a good shot on the bear's nose or eye area, which is supposed to be quite sensitive, kind of like if you pet a cat whilst it lying down and it scratches you, all four of it's limbs go at you, as weird as it may sounds and that could do enough damage.

Also, I think the tiger is faster and more agile than it's opponent, which can make it a bit harder for the bear to keep up with, especially if the tiger manages to land a headshot.

If the bear manages to hold off the tiger for a few minutes without getting too hurt, that could give it the win, because as far as I'm aware, all big cats are low on stamina and fatigue can be costly, assuming the bear has good stamina and can dodge the cat basically jumping at it, at least without any major injuries.

That being said, I think the tiger would stand a much better chance against the bear than any other big cat, as they're the heaviest of them and unlike the lion, they hunt alone and ambush.

The tiger. The bear fights when it must, the tiger fights all the time, in hunting, in territory, in survival against humans etc. The tiger is fast, has far sharper teeth, and I honestly doubt if bears are even stronger, they're bigger to be sure, but that doesn't automatically mean more strength. To summarize, the tiger is a born killer, bears will preferably avoid conflict and will only attack if threatened.

Grizzlies are brutal and also more then twice the size (weight wise) of a tiger, so I say Grizzly.

[Alexandrubaschet08]

The Siberian Tiger is the bigges species of tiger they can get to more then 3m and they can as well stay on 2 feets for a time, they can even jump and they do that pretty well.

[hellionthesagereborn]

@Alexandrubaschet08 And on average the males way 380 pounds vs. a grizzlies 800. A grizzly has claws, so does a tiger, a grizzly has teeth, so does a tiger, but a grizzly has twice the mass in its swipes and tends to be more aggressive.

[Alexandrubaschet08]

Tigers are more agresive then bears.
Bears are more slow and can't jump very hight.
Tiger can use theyr feet in the fight whitch the bear don't do it moust of the time.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I would say Grizzly Bear but of course, the bear is so overweight the Tiger may outpower him, and the Tiger very well easily pull this fight over?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Bear are some strong monsters. A Tiger is very agile but one hit from the pawn of a bear can seriously hurt a Tiger. I got my money on a bear.

[JessieBellll]

Tigers are very mean and strong, but I'd go for the grizzly

[888theGreat]

[ShadezMcgee]

Gotta go with the bear on this one.
