Wild
Beasts: A Study of the Characters and Habits of the Elephant, Lion … by
John Hampden Porter - Animal behavior - 1894 - Page 239 "How often a
conflict between animals so formidable ends in the assailant's repulse
or death, we do not know, neither can we say whether bison's are
habitually attacked by tigers. Lions destroy the African buffalo either
singly or by taking odds ; and in a personal contest, the tiger would
generally have the advantage over a lion. They have often been pitted
against each other, and the general result is well known to be as
stated. Junglar, who belonged to the King of Oude, killed thirty lions,
and destroyed another after being transferred to the zoological garden
in London. "

Saba
a 13-year old 550-pound tiger, has killed his 7-year-old female
companion at the Slater Park Zoo. An attendant found the dead 300-pound
tigress when investigating a disturbance at the animals cages. Saba had
killed two lions in a circus before he was bought by the zoo. The zoo
had hoped to mate the tigers.
9.)Tiger defeats Lion on video shown by lecturer
The Glasgow Herald - March 26, 1937
Unusual studies shown at Glasgow Lecture
A
man sitting on the back of a lion, and a fight between a lion and a
tiger, were two studies in an interesting selection of slides shown by
Mr John S Clarke last night when he gave an illustrated lecture to the
Glasgow Zoological Society.
The lecturer himself was the
person shown on the back of the lion, and he exhibited many other slides
which indicated the remarkable conscience which he has been able to
inspire in wild animals. There was one tiger, he said, which he taught
to kiss.
Referring to the fight between the lion, and the
tiger, he said that in 100 cases out of 100 the tiger would always beat
the lion. It was far more agile, it was not so clumsy in its movements,
it was equally strong, it was equally armed, but it fought in a
different way.
The tiger very often fought rolling on its back
and held the lion in its grip until it defeated him. The actual fight
shown on the screen indicated the animals in this position, and Mr
Clarke remarked, "The lion is doomed."
