Pretty sure if you had to bet your life on a Lioness or a Male Leopard you'd pick the Lioness to win in a heartbeat.

Enjoy the instances the Leopard survives rather than trying to use those cases as an argument Leopard can win any confrontation with a bigger cat.
Alas, no one has ever made that claim...so your comments are quite
misplaced & unnecessary...

Trying to gain the favor of Taipan are we?

You don't have to outright make it to imply it.

Use your common sense. Thanks.

Oh I see whats going on here.....BI-are you posting while "faded" again?

maybe you should put down the spliff/blunt/bong...and let the effects
wear off before you decide to post? Only a stint of paranoia would have one seeing
such implications, when there clearly are none...


please stop posting while intoxicated, because you're not making
any sense...thanks

^ There was more than 1 lioness from the Styx pride involved in that killing.

Intraguild killing
"We ascertained cause of death for 52% of lion mortalities (n=333) and 45% of leopard mortalities (n=433) (Figure 4). Conspecifics were responsible for the greatest percentage (lion: 69%; leopard: 40%) of known-cause mortality for both species. Leopards accounted for 3% of known-cause juvenile lion deaths (n= 121); leopards were not recorded killing lions older than 7 months. Lions accounted for 22% of known-cause leopard cub deaths (n=152) and 23% of independent (≥2 years old) leopard deaths (n=44). The mean age of lions killed by leopards was 0.22 ± 0.12 years (range= 0.08–0.58 years), while the mean age of leopards killed by lions was 2.71±0.75 years (range=0.08–16.59years). "

You do realize that most leopards, especially adult males, die becouse of sustained injuries caused by lions? Very rarely lions kill leopards in a single bite to the throat (like they do with other predators.) Good examples are the Airstrip leopard and the Piva/Threehouse leopard.

Juveniles, females and cub need to watch their back though as they will be killed almost every single time lions catch them.

What I gather from Lion-Leopard interactions, is that the Leopard
is so formidable as an adversary, that even Lions are forced to respect
them; and that more often than not, a single Lion(male or female)
isn't enough to outright kill a tom Leopard...


Cut the crap; this whole thread you've been wanking off Leopards as if they actually stand any sliver of a chance winning against a Lion or Lioness in a serious fight.

I realise that adult Leopards including males are killed by lionesses and lions because they are an inferior physical pantherine species to Panthera leo.

Congrats Taipan, you beat the Boogeyman who argued otherwise.

If this was a Puma achieving these feats of having repelled multiple lionesses would you be singing a different tune?

No need to bring negative feelings into this great thread, regardless

Being smaller does not denote or imply physical inferiority...especially since
Leopards have physical attributes that go well beyond the physical limitations
of Lions...like being adept tree climbers & having greater leaping ability
as well as markedly superior agility.

Yeah....they are that inferior that they some how manage to hold off not just 1 lion from attacking but groups of lions.....maybe you should go tell the lions just how inferior leopards are so they dont look so pathetic when a group is to afraid to go in and kill the much inferior leopard....😂

If you three guys want to start a fanboy thread, please do so in the fantasy section. I will continue to present facts regarding these two feline species here.

this is a lose-lose scenario for you, by bigging up the leopard you are sh!itting on the lions. just cause they hunt in packs doesnt make them any less of a cat lol
