Awesome art:
To bad they dont really show that much combativeness in real life, and check this out, it seems recently some one revamped some beatty info, the jeonju zoo and the perth zoo incident:

lol Sorry for Bigcat82 the guy with a hundred aliases in trying to hide the truth, but looks like he befells a huge task in trying to keep the truth hidden, as now in this era people can look through newspaper archives and dig up the facts all on there own, the more people will acsess the archives, the more the truth will be shown and the lies decimated. lol
Take these three accounts into consideration:
"Boss Tweed," Clyde said, "was one of the greatest fighters I've ever seen, in addition to his noble looks. He did some of his cleverest fighting in the Rochester Massacre. That was this spring. When two score of lions and tigers were in the arena for a dress rehearsal. One, on a high seat, reached down to take a cuff at the cat below. They frequently do that without much happening. But in this case the cat on the- high scat fell off and landed on the one below. The one below, thinking he was attacked, started to fight. In a second it was a free-for-all. In such a fight the lions have two distinct advantages. Their first is their thick mane which prevents the tigers from getting to their throats. Their second is their clannish way of ganging up on a tiger. A tiger will just watch another tiger being attacked. The lions join each other. An animal attendant excitedly raised a gate into the shoot so the beasts could return to their cages. Into the shoot ran three Bengal tigers with Boss Tweed in pursuit. "For twenty minutes they battled. Boss Tweed killed the three tigers, but himself was almost torn to ribbons. He recovered but somehow he never seemed to be the same. His spirit or his fighting nerve was gone. The other morning I opened his cage door and he was dead, for seven years I trained him, the longest of any of my cats. I was greatly attached to him.

lion kills three tigers ~ Altoona Mirror, September 27, 1928
Colonel HH Shri Sir Ranjitsinhji Vibhaji, Maharaja Jam Saheb of Nawanagar (1872-1933)

"Jam Sahib of Nawanagar has informed me that he has himself witnessed a fight between a lion and a tiger on four occasions, on all of which the lion won."

Twice one lion defeated and killed 3 tigers? Thats incredible, and the consistancy makes it seem that its almostthe norm, as other lions like detroit killed 3 tigers, Prince killed 3 tigers, a lioness named Theba whipped two large tigers, a lion named dutch whipped all of terrells tigers, Pete taylors lion Emperor whipped all of his tigers, Clyde beattys lions Duke whipped over 6+ tigers at once, Sultan whipped over 7+ tigers at once, there isnt any single account that shows the fighting prowess of either tiger nor bear, even the one where the 4 lions fought 3 polar bears, the bears would have alltogether have more than 2,000 pounds over the lions, even 3 documented fights where a lion killed a bear, cow and tiger in a single fight in verona.
But still nice art.
