Why african lion alway win bengal tiger?

in the zoo tycoon 2 game i put lion and tiger fight and the lion alway wins. how to make the tiger win

Why african lion alway win bengal tiger?
First of all, the lion will not always win!





My bet is that it will win 6 out of 10 times with males and just 4 out of 10 times with females. Tiger is not a silly cat by any means. The following gives you the size comparison between animals in their prime(6-7 years old):





Male Tiger(Bengal): Longer, heavier and most of all has 4 inch canines, but shorter than the lion(3 feet at the shoulder) and has the same claw size as the lions. It is build for unmatched leaping power. They only fight as the last resort.





Male Lion(African): Taller at the shoulder(4 feet), so a bigger fore arm. It has a bigger head even with a shaved off mane and has the protection of mane. It has 3-31/2 inch canines. A lion is more aggressive and willing to fight. This animal is built for fighting. They mostly end up fighting if there is an intruder in the territory. With the African heat there is very little fat in the body.





Fight between males:


-----------------------------


Lions have specialized in throat bite and use more frequently than tigers. In this fight the tiger would stand on its hind legs and unleash paw swipes with both paws. At the same time a lion would switch between using two paws and using one paw standing on a 3 legged stance. Lions use two paws if the opponent is not subdue-able with one paw. Lions also specialize in giving bites to the fore leg of the opponent. This is an acquired behavior with lions with large manes. A better fighter with more power upfront and more aggression, the lion nails the tiger 6 out of 10 times. If they are in a cage the fight would probably last till death. It must be remembered that more than the size of the animal, aggression is the key to a fight. Also, canine size advantage doesn't matter to a tiger because a lion has mane and more experience with throat bites.





To give an example of big canine sizes, baboons have 4 inch canines too.





Fight between females:


--------------------------------


Female lions are significantly smaller than males but the size difference is smaller with tigers. Even though the lioness would be taller the tigress would have a significant advantage. The tigress would nail a lioness 6 out of 10 times. If they are in a cage, its unlikely that the fight would last till death as in the case of males. Females have a behavior to avoid fights and use it only as the last resort. So both are likely to respect each other.
Reply:In the natural world, the tigers mostly rely on stealth and surprise, while lions rely on their bulliness and makes use of the fear of other animals(which is the right thing to do for the animals) so the lions have more brute strength
Reply:zoo tycoon2 is just a game. In real life the tiger will always beat a lion because they have more powerful paw strength
