As the top hunter in the forest, the brown bear's size and ferocity need not be said, every time I watch "Animal World", there is always such a question: it is said that the tiger is the king of the forest, how fierce, but if compared with the brown bear, how? Let's talk about this "stupid big man."
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the Brown Bear Encyclopedia</h1>
Speaking of brown bears, they are also known as grizzly bears. It is one of the largest mammals on Earth. The length is between 1.5-2.8 meters. The shoulder height is about 0.9-1.5 meters. Males weigh 90-800 kg and females weigh 80-250 kg. They are large in shape, with rounded heads and covered in thick hairs. Especially in winter, in order to protect itself from the cold, its thick hair length can reach 10 cm thick. Distinguished by color, there are generally gold, brown and black. The biggest feature is the front paws, which can reach the forearm very powerfully, and the claw tips of the front claws can reach a maximum of 15 centimeters and cannot be retracted like other cats.
They are a solitary animal and generally work as a family. It lives mainly in forests, with Eurasia and North America as its main areas of activity. Foraging during the day, it is an omnivorous animal, up to most animals, down to a variety of plants, it can eat. It is a creature with hibernation habits.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > which is stronger or weaker for brown bears and tigers? </h1>
As we mentioned above, compared with the living environment of lions, brown bears, as well as tigers, live in the forest, and are still top meat eaters, and it is inevitable that they will meet, so if the two really fight for food, who will have more advantages?
This hypothesis is a matter of widespread concern in the biological community. Many biologists have come to the conclusion that in the direct struggle between brown bears and tigers, most of them still end in the victory of brown bears, but the advantages are not obvious. Why? It is because brown bears are good at using tactics and are not weak in themselves. Tigers' claws know no, sharp and very flexible, but brown bears' claws are not bad, compared to tigers, their bite force is stronger. Although we often jokingly call "stupid bears", people are not stupid at all, on the contrary, they are very smart, and they know how to use reasonable tactics in the battle with tigers, so as to relax and wait, your tiger is more flexible than me, I recognize. No matter how flexible you are, there will always be times when you are tired, and when you are tired, I will go up and slap you directly. In the images transmitted by biologists to the electronic collars of brown bears, there is such an interesting phenomenon: it is said that tigers will also know how to learn lessons when fighting brown bears. They usually hide in the shadows, sneak observation, and then take advantage of the brown bear's inattention to make a sneak attack, directly throw the brown bear to the ground, but the brown bear is not willing to show weakness, it will use tactics, first stand there idly, in the moment when the tiger pounces, suddenly turn back, with its claws to respond. Seeing this, many people will be unconvinced, especially "tiger powder". You will say what kind of animal is a tiger, as long as you bite to death you do not let go, brown bears are not opponents at all, the worst I run, can not beat you, I can not run you? Here, I would like to explain that although tigers are lighter and faster than brown bears, one of the biggest problems is overlooked, which is endurance. Maybe the cheetah gives us the illusion that cats generally run very fast, if not the fastest, but not much worse. In fact, it is true, but the brown bear really wants to kill you, you run fast and useless, and you have to run for a long time. Felines, even cheetahs, are only known for their speed, and when it comes to endurance, it is not worth mentioning at all.
The data shows that tigers can only run at high speeds of about 450 meters, cheetahs are worse, they can only run at high speeds of 300 meters, and brown bears are known for their terrifying endurance, brown bears can run at high speed for several miles continuously, and more animal experts say that brown bears can chase until the herbivores have no strength. This answer is obvious, I am not as good as you in front, but you run out of a few hundred meters and you are tired, I can slowly chase you, and when you are out of breath, then you will die. It is worth mentioning that brown bears often use this point of tigers: tigers have worked hard to hunt the prey, and the brown bear is the first time to grab it, because you have no extra physical strength after hunting, and I go to grab, you obviously can't catch up with me. There is a scientific basis for this: most of the time, it is true that brown bears have a better chance of winning. Of course, there will be exceptions, biologists in the field observation, found that four hundred pounds of Siberian tigers defeated two six hundred pounds of adult brown bears at a time.

There is a saying in folklore that fish and bear paws cannot be combined. This is both a philosophical quote and a harsh reality. In many specialty restaurants, there is such a dish - braised bear paw. Maybe you just look at the dishes and look at the color and flavor. But after listening to the story behind the bear, you can't eat it.
Bear paws, as the name suggests, are bear hands, and after many reporters secretly investigated, they found that many illegal hunters would keep bears in cages and then sell them to restaurants or some people in need, in order to ensure freshness, usually the bear's hand was cut off directly without any anesthesia. Many times, as long as the guests want to order, the criminals will take them to the place where the bear is held, take a look at it from a distance, prove the freshness of the ingredients, and then the chef will take out the knife, a knife split, the bear paw is chopped off, at this time I think the fierce animal, come to this, it will be a huge pain.
Just listening to this description, you can hear their heart-rending screams. As if that wasn't enough, the bears that were chopped off were simply bandaged (either out of sympathy or conscience, but to prevent the bear from losing too much blood and dying, because bear bile was taken). How to take the method? The only way to get it before was to cut the bear's abdomen and take the bile, whether it was a trap or a trap, taking a small 50-gram bear bile, and a 200-kilogram black bear would be killed.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > no killing without buying or selling</h1>
In 1983, North Korea invented the technique of taking bile from live bears, which was soon introduced to China. In bear farms, when the bear reaches the age of 3, the bear undergoes a surgical procedure in which the abdomen is cut open and a nearly 20-centimeter steel catheter is installed, with one end of the metal tube permanently inserted into the bear's gallbladder and the other exposed to the bear's abdomen, allowing the bile to flow out. Because the wound is exposed and never heals, it is often infected. In order to increase the outflow of bile, the bear farm will use a special syringe to pump into the gallbladder to take bile, and every time at this time, the bear whose bile is extracted will howl in pain! Seeing this, do you still think that bear paws are delicious? Can you still eat it?
We are all saying "natural selection, survival of the fittest". But should bears really be "bullied" like this by us? Maybe it's really delicious, but the means are too cruel, if our hands are chopped off for the bear to eat, I don't know how we feel?
Although bears are fierce and even terrifying, their only natural enemies are humans. They need protection, they need our "mercy under the mouth"!
