i give the edge to the cat since it is a grappler, has sharp claws, and its teeth. dogs generally have the bite and aggression but a cat just has more weapons.

with that said, i want some evidence and accounts of dogs meeting cats in battle or in death. one on one. there have been posted in this forum before. so far all people been talking about is just saying this animal will beat this animal without much encounters or evidence popping up.

Cats claws are rarely lethal if at all on equal or greater sized carnivores

not against 8 mastiffs at the same time!


This occurrence is discussed on several chinese message boards.

There was also a tv team in the village.


I don't know if this report is true, but this happening is discusses on many chinese boards and on many news sites.

I find the account hard to believe. In gladiatorial fights, 4 mastiffs were considered a good matchup for a male lion.

it wasn't a fight one leopard vs 8 mastiffs at the SAME time!!!!!

This happens during several hours...or a night.

I posted that account months ago. People said it was strange then and asked why would I, a dog supporter post it.

Obviously eight mastiffs didn't attack at the same time. But no one really knows what happened and I don't speak Chinese so I guess that's that.

A staff could kill a bobcat at parity. They are more robust than any fox at similar weights.
I don't think so. Most Pitbull/Staff supporters think these dogs blindly run into a conflict (cuz they've seen a few dog fighting videos or whatever), but the dog will end up being savagely mauled. Dog vs Dog is pretty different from Dog vs Wild Cat.

Here's a picture of a small Bobcat against a pack of hounds.

I can do the same thing and post terriers attacking/killing similar sized bobcat(s)
Glad u said terriers and not terrier, 1 terrier on its own would get twated by a bobcat unless it has a good size advantage.
It would no longer be a terrier with an increase in size, it would be a bull and terrier, and they are a completely different ball game.
