You are alone on a stranded island, normally clothed, but have no weapons to fight against the animals in the gauntlet. Contender: You Round 1: 23 kg Clouded Leopard Round 2: 29 kg American pit bull terrier Round 3: 30 kg Chacma Baboon Round 4: 40 kg Monitor Lizard Round 5: 50 kg white-tailed deer Round 6: 55 kg Deinunychus Round 7: 65 kg Sun Bear

Please ignore the image of those white-tailed deer having a threesome, I couldn't find a better fitting picture.
Nonetheless, I think that I stop at the baboon, being conservative. Male chacma baboons have nasty canines, are very aggressive, and I'm not very durable (like most people).
I would have less trouble with the monitor than I would with the baboon, but I'd lose to the deer and I'll get demolished in the final 2 battles.

I would strangle the leopard too death suffering minor injuries.
I would try to wrestle the dog down and strangle it as well, if not try to break its neck. I would need heavy clothing and put on my cup though. Maybe even gloves cause it likely will bite my hands.
For the Baboon, I would once again need heavy clothing and a cup. I would try to wrestle and overpower it and I'm likely much stronger than it. I think I could win.
For the Lizard, I would jump onto its back and try to break its neck or suffocate it. I'm very sure that most men could probably do that to.
The deer would be pretty hard to beat bare handed. It would come charging at me with those antlers. If it was indoors, I feel like I could probably get a hold of it and eventually defeat it, if not chase it off. Id be pretty banged and bruised though. If it was outside, I would be on the defense and probably go on the ground and when it gets close enough, I would try to grab a leg and hopefully bring it down. I think more than likely, the deer would run away when I start fighting hard.
For the dinosaur, I would be in trouble. I could wrestle it to the ground being heavier and stronger, but it has deadly claws and teeth. I would be forced to fight as hard as I can and I think I could pull it off, but I there is a chance that I would die after the fight.
For the bear, I would lose. I'm heavier, but the bear is still likely stronger. It's lb for lb stronger than humans. Even if it wasn't, it would knock me to the ground and pretty much tear me apart with its claws and teeth. Even a sub adult black bear can kill a human. In fact, that actually happened at a zoo according to bigbonns. It killed three men in just a few minutes and the bear was sub adult weighing less than the men!

Well, I think I could take the dog, baboon, monitor, deer, and maybe the leopard if I keep it away from my neck. A 50lb cat would be mighty tough… I'm a large guy, 210lbs, but the weaponry of the Drom and bear would be toooooo much.
My list in order of difficulty: Monitor, dog, baboon, deer, leopard, dino, bear.

If I were normally clothed, I would just be more injured but I could probably still do it, but I likely stop at the dinosaur. At best I would try to wrestle it, but my belly is going to be cut up. We might just kill each other.

Even round one should be able to stop, any normal human.

As members here have never experienced, how difficult it will be to fight animals, since even other primates, much smaller then humans, have killed or severely injured humans Monkey kills adult human.Saying those are "rare case" cannot actually prove anything.

One.
*incoming rambling about that decision by others who are confident they would defeat a Clouded Leopard*
woah, woah. I'll put in some reasons as to why I wouldn't be defeating a Clouded Leopard more often than not. Because it seems that it's quite hard to say something like that without being questioned as to why you think so, because size apparently matters here for me or something.
I'm a 14 year old person, 50 kg. I'm quite skinny (but gaining a bit of muscle), and my favourite sport is running. I am some of the fastest people in my year in my school, and I'll be honest with you; I'm usually more flight than fight. I could fight quite a few people I know around my age, but I don't fight as much as I used to, when sometimes I would give somebody a good beating in a fist fight for sometimes little reasons. My main fighting type is to either punch as quickly as possible or as hard as I can, or to grapple onto my opponent.
So, facing off with a 23 kg clouded leopard. Yes, the cat would be smaller than me in height or weight. But cats have the weaponry to take down things bigger than themselves. Smaller or less impressive cats have taken down things much larger than themselves, or even a human. Eurasian lynx will very occasionally take on a red deer, for example. I know that clouded leopards don't regularly take down prey larger than themselves, but they have the weaponry to potentially take down an opponent bigger than themselves. I've heard that clouded leopards might take on boar though, and here's an account of a Clouded Leopard killing an orangutan:
"That morning, Pak Cobe had gone into the Forest Quarantine area, and discovered a young orangutan dead in her cage. Both her arms were chewed off; her chest torn open. We found footprints, claw marks and animal hairs nearby, and tooth and claw marks on her body. From these and the nature of the injuries, we concluded she had been attacked by a big cat, most likely a clouded leopard which is the only large carnivore found in Tanjung Puting National Park."
If I were to face on a Clouded Leopard, it would be hard for me to really find an approach that wouldn't involve myself getting cut or injured in some other way. It's true that my adrenaline might kick in that might make me more determined to fight the leopard, but the leopard fighting an opponent larger than itself would have a lot of adrenaline inside it as well, wouldn't it?
Trying to punch at an area like the face would probably result in my hand getting bitten at, or perhaps clawed at on my arm or hand. An attack like that from the feline could damage me enough that I might actually get a bit distracted at the wounds I have, and then get injured more. If you get injured badly enough, you wouldn't just get back up and get into rage-mode like in Mortal Kombat or something like that. It's natural to be wary of how to approach an animal with very large claws and teeth. Being somebody who has owned cats for a long time, I know what it feels like to be decked in the face or scratched on the arm/hand by a cat, and it can be more painful than I can sometimes imagine. If you are injured good enough by an animal you can consider large with large claws and teeth, it would hinder your ability to fight properly and make you more liable to panic. It sounds obvious, but it's apparent to me that some people are quite confident in saying how they would fight another animal without thinking about how the other animal would kill them or how dangerous a risk it could be. Maybe others are different to me, a lot of you guys are a lot older than me.
This low-lung animal would most likely be difficult to wrestle at either, because any attempt of mine to perform a move like that or similar to that could just result in me getting injured, even if I just go down to reach at the clouded leopard to perform a grappling move, I still have the risk of the CL grabbing me to get a good bite or claw at me.
My best option would be to kick at the Clouded Leopard's head with as much force and speed as I can, and hope to stun it or injure it enough so that I can further damage it with more punches and kicks. But this cat is quite low-lung and agile, so there's a good chance that my kick won't be that hard on the cat, but I'm not really that sure.
Are people really going to say to me something like, "you could roundhouse kick the leopard, or wrestle it, or grab its tail and swing the cat around with it!"?
I'm not a cage fighter, or anything similar to that. Please don't be that surprised when I say that a Clouded Leopard can kill me.
I'm not exactly saying I wouldn't ever have a chance of winning this either, but out of the cats in the 20-30 kg range, the last one I would want to approach is the clouded leopard.
Sunda Clouded Leopards can reach 70 lb, btw.
---
Can't make it past the baboon or pitbull, but I could defeat the monitor, and MAYBE the deer? Wouldn't count on it though. Deinonychus and Sun Bear would tear me up though.

I'd suplex the lot of them, and tea bag their corpses.

I can't find an instance of a money killing a human, but I can find chimps severely injuring humans. What kind of monkey are we using anyway? Some species can easily be killed by humans. Even if no one here has ever experienced fighting these animals, the first animal is still just too light. Hell I'm sure you yourself could kill one by just strangling it if you wanted/had to.
