Top 10 Strongest Predators In The Wild - Prey VS Predator - Blondi Foks
Transcript
00:00 There are different kinds of predators in the wild.
00:13 And all of them are equipped with a powerful capability that they use in bringing down
00:18 their prey.
00:19 Some of them hunt alone and some of them hunt as a group.
00:30 So which one is the strongest?
00:33 You will not believe what you see in this video.
00:44 Top 10 strongest predators in the wild.
00:47 Number 1.
00:49 Tiger.
00:51 The tiger is the most powerful predator that lives on land.
00:58 The tiger is a large and apex predator, primarily preying on ungulates such as deer and wild
01:05 squirrel.
01:06 Tigers are patient hunters and can move slowly and quietly, stalking their prey for 20 minutes.
01:17 A tiger's large canine teeth and powerful jaws are used to grab a prey animal by the
01:22 neck and suffocate it.
01:24 Also, the tiger has been seen to beat a lion in most battles.
01:29 Number 2.
01:31 Lion.
01:32 The lion is the second largest cat in the world.
01:38 They live in groups called prides of around 30 lions.
01:43 The lion can attack all other predators without fear.
01:53 The king of the jungle we all know is not actually a lion.
01:57 The lion doesn't live in the jungle, it lives in the great swan.
02:02 They are also extremely protective of their young and whoever approaches their cubs is
02:07 in extreme danger.
02:12 Tigers are very strong in herding and this is the strongest herd in the world.
02:18 Number 3.
02:19 Jaguar.
02:23 Jaguars are the only big cat in the America and the third biggest in the world after tigers
02:29 and lions.
02:31 They look like leopards, which live in Africa and Asia.
02:38 The jaguar is not typically an aggressive animal, but when it becomes aggressive, it's
02:45 with explosive force.
02:48 It's an ambush predator.
02:50 It can attack very quickly and with great force.
02:58 Number 4.
02:59 Leopard.
03:03 Leopards are perhaps the most aggressive of all big cats.
03:07 The fact that they have to live alongside bigger cousins like lions and tigers itself
03:14 evolves them to be quite aggressive.
03:23 The leopard is a graceful, powerful and cunning big cat, closely related to lions, jaguars
03:30 and tigers.
03:31 The leopard lives alone and hunts mostly at night.
03:41 Number 5.
03:43 Crocodile.
03:45 Nile and South Border crocodiles are the most dangerous.
03:50 Crocodiles have powerful jaws with many conical teeth and short legs.
03:55 The bite power of crocodiles can reach up to 4000 PSI.
04:04 A crocodile is a large amphibious reptile.
04:07 It lives mostly in large tropical rivers, where it is an ambush predator.
04:17 They can ambush lions and easily kill them.
04:20 They are at the top of the food chain and are very difficult to hunt.
04:31 Number 6.
04:32 Hyena.
04:33 Hyenas are noted as scavengers, but most are also effective hunters.
04:45 Hyenas are very social and live in groups called clans.
04:50 Clans can have up to 8 members.
04:53 Not only are spotted hyena females larger, they are also more aggressive and are dominant
04:59 in their clans.
05:02 A herd of hyenas is so strong that it can even kill lions.
05:08 Hyenas have incredible biting power and a hyena can bite at 1100 PSI.
05:21 Number 7.
05:22 Cougar.
05:23 Cougars, they are one of the most adaptable big cats in the Western Hemisphere.
05:36 They are highly intelligent and elusive animals who primarily eat deer and avoid humans.
05:45 Cougars are often aggressive animals and rarely attack humans.
05:51 Skilled and cunning hunters, cougars stay hidden from their prey until they can pounce
05:57 with claws out straight.
06:02 Number 8.
06:03 Cheetah.
06:04 Cheetah is the fastest running mammal in the world.
06:09 Cheetahs can run up to 70 miles per hour, but usually only chase their prey at about
06:14 half that speed.
06:20 Cheetah is also one of the strongest predators.
06:24 Thanks to its agility and speed, almost other predators cannot approach them.
06:33 When we look at it in terms of size and mass, it is smaller than lion and tiger and cannot
06:39 cope with them.
06:47 Number 9.
06:48 Wolf.
06:49 Wolves live and hunt in packs of around 6 to 10 animals.
06:58 They are known to roam large distances, perhaps 12 miles in a single day.
07:07 Packs of wolves have endless energy, and they never let go of their prey.
07:16 Wolves communicate very well in the pack and hunt very tactical.
07:25 And Number 10.
07:26 Wild Dogs.
07:30 The wild dog is one of the world's most endangered mammals.
07:36 Wild dogs are social and gather in packs of around 10 members, but some packs number more
07:42 than 40.
07:47 African wild dogs prefer to stay as far away from humans as possible.
07:52 If they do encounter humans, they would only attack if cornered.
08:04 Thanks for watching.
