Is anyone willing to admit they bias their conclusion in cases of specific animals? Personally I'm unaware whether I'm biased or not. I suspect i might be biased towards fish. I admit I find some people on this forum very biased. Do you guys agree? |

Admitted bias to deinonychus | |
Taipan stopped me from posting because I thought I was above the rules, and ignoring the stated consequences operated multiple accounts.

doesn't he think everyone who says an ant can beat a sauropod at parity is biased? pound for pound some insects are far stronger than bigger animals. some have amazing and unique abilities. they are not to be underestimated. |

I'm bias towards AWD's but I don't let it get in the way of reason. There are many cases where I admit AWD's have lost interspecific conflicts like AWD vs Cheetah and AWD vs Chacma Baboon,

not necessarily. if two animals are of similar size, strength lb for lb will give us a idea who of them is absolute stronger. this does not work with ants and dinosaurs though. a ant most likely would not be stronger than a dinosaur of similar size. those who think otherwise need to read this topic. http://carnivoraforum.com/topic/9332140/ Edited by Nocturnal, Jul 22 2012, 11:59 PM.

Like broleyeupwhatsitdooda said, I am a complete insect fanboy. A stag beetle could easily maul any big cat. BUGS FOREVER. | |

Guess I'm a bit bias with Snakes. Only because I think they're very underrated. | |

Is that the reason you favored a retic python over a leopard but provided no reason for it other than everyone has their own opinions? |

One of the reasons. I mean yeah Snakes may not have much weaponry besides their jaws, but they also have really powerful muscles and are capable of striking very fast. Most people might think they're very slow, when that really isn't true. Edited by DinosaurMichael, Jul 23 2012, 02:51 AM.
