Life
There you go again! Repeating the same refuted claims over and over. I've already refuted all your arguments.
Its a WELL KNOWN ESTABLISHED FACT, and I repeat....an established FACT, that tigers can and HAVE killed adult elephants.
These accounts have been verified and reported by numerous forest officials, deputy directors, park rangers, naturalists, renowned tiger authorities etc etc....
The tiger is not just seen "feeding on an already dead elephant carcass". Thats ridiculous. The elephant is seen with bad lacerations which clearly suggests that it was MAULED by the tiger, and the ground will even show clear signs of an intense struggle, which clearly indicates a fight between the two.
How many times do I have to explain this to you?....Even the villagers will report hearing the sounds of the fight between the tiger and elephant.
You can repeat the same stuff over and over again, but it will NEVER change the reality and fact that tigers have killed full-grown adult elephants, period.
I'd rather accept the words and conclusions of actual respected tiger authorities, deputy forest officials, experts etc...than a forum poster.

Life, is clearly in denial and ignores blatant hard evidence of tigers killing adult elephants. Who would you rather listen too, Life, who's just a random forum poster or actual tiger experts and forest officials who have verified these accounts? I appeal to your logic.

I actually agree with the analogy you made. I just agree with Life that not all accounts are to be taken as set in stone.
Officials and experts can make errors too. Take Calvo 2007 for instance; they estimated Futalognkosaurus at 32-34 meters but then revised it downwards in 2008.

A tiger will not ambush a bull elephant, a bull rhinoceros, a 1,000+ pound crocodile, or a mature boar grizzly. Even a tiger has his limitations.

Life, is clearly in denial and ignores blatant hard evidence of tigers killing adult elephants. And you wonder why you get banned from everywhere. Lol Not even an attempt at a rebuttal, just warped misconceptions and attempted assassination of character(saying he's in denial and ignorance); i am 100% you didn't even atttempt to comprehend what his post actually said. TigerLads are disgusting "respected authorities" like the ones who wrote Prey preference of the tiger, the paper he cited? You muppet. Initial reply from life: Your response - Refuse to provide an account despite talking about them
- trying to call him a liar
In what world is that a reasonable reply?

You haven't even read my posts properly! Provide accounts? I posted a link which provided a whole bunch of accounts! LMAO!!
You are a complete waste of my time. You haven't got a clue about this topic, let alone tigers.
And go learn what a verified account means.

Thats why on Wildfact, you have acknowledged numerous times that a tiger has killed a Bull elephant. You even made a thread about tiger predation on adult elephants! LOOOL....
And of course, the rest of your claims is nothing but blatant lies, and you know it.
Your clearly trolling.

If these accounts are true, how do single tigers accomplish something that entire lion prides have never succeeded in (killing a grown, healthy bull elephant)?

Have you missed all of mountainlord's posts where he proved that the tiger is the supreme ruler of basically all of animal kind?
Using it in the same sentence as those mortal lion prides should be a capital offense.

If these accounts are true, how do single tigers accomplish something that entire lion prides have never succeeded in (killing a grown, healthy bull elephant)? Here's why....
1) These accounts have been reported, examined and verified by forest officials, renowned tiger authorities, deputy directors, park rangers etc...
2) An Asian Bull elephant is smaller than an African Bull elephant, so there's a difference.
3) The tiger, due to its lifestyle and mentality, is a fiercer and more tenacious killer than a lion, so once a tiger commits to attack an elephant, it usually goes for a kill.
4) I've never claimed that a tiger "outright kills" a Bull elephant. Thats just stupid. The tiger attacks and mauls the elephant for a prolonged period of time, even using a hit and run tactic. The Bull elephant will eventually bleed out, weaken and die.
FYI, I have never said these are "common" occurrences, of course its rare, but there are CONFIRMED cases of it happening.
There's just too many historical accounts (From reliable sources) and verified news reports of this happening, so they can't all be "fake".

Using it in the same sentence as those mortal lion prides should be a capital offense. No need to exaggerate. I challenge you to show me one claim I've ever made, that I never posted evidence to back it up?
Unlike Brobear and many other posters on this forum, I actually post evidences and numerous accounts that back up my claims. No one can deny this, period.
And yeah, when it comes to land animals, I'll say it straight up, the tiger is hands-down the greatest and most supreme killer and predator. And has by far the most impressive killing prowess of any other animal on earth.
I defy any person on this forum to prove me wrong.
