These pics don't violate any forum rules that I am aware of.

Running Vista is like being in a candy store that only sells black liquorice at exorbitant prices. Oh, and you\'re only allowed to eat the candy in the store.

I also find it a rather uncomfortable and distastful idea all-in-all. But hey, that's just me.

There have been tonnes of documented cases of big cats taking on big reptiles.
Lions have been documented killing crocs occasionally - although they mostly stick to stealing food from them. A lioness or two will often go into the water and liberate a crocs catch.
In India Tigers regularly kill big crocs and pythons.
In Brazil, jaguars take on cayman's and anacondas and almost always win.

I don't know what the fuss about these pics are - leopards are the most opportunistic of all the big cats - so it's no surprise that one would take on a croc. Nice to see it finally caught on film tho!

as a regular visitor to game parks throughout SA, those pics are incredible.

Simply glimpsing a leopard is rare enough, (twice in 7 years). getting to watch a leopard kick croc backside is equatable to being struck by ball lightening... 8O

even rarer than seeing:

I'll agree the getting it on film is a rare occurrence, but why are people so surprised that it happens?

Leopards will kill anything they think they can take can when they are hungry enough.

Search youtube and you will find lots of footage of other big cats taking on crocs. Is it really such a stretch to image that leopards do it too?

Grizzly vs Tiger, I thought the Tiger would win, I was wrong. It cowered in the corner while the Grizzly chased it around the cage. I won't post it because it's cruelty to animals, arranged animal fights aren't legal and immoral. I was curious, saw some arguments on a chan and someone posted the link.

There was no serious injuries because the Tiger ran away the whole time. It resembled a cat + dog fight.

In the wild tigers often do.

You must remember a tiger is an ambush predator, while a brown bear is more upfront brute force. No prizes for guessing the winner in a cage match.
Siberian tigers have been known to kill brown bears. They don't take on big males, but females an juveniles are fair game.
They ambush them from behind and finish them with a bite to the base of the neck.

Male brown bears pwn all tho. They will chase a 450kg male tigers from their kills. They have even been seen chasing large polar bears from their kills.

I'm big-time anti cage matches. But if it happens in the wild I love seeing animals savaging each other!

"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Definition of asinine:

1 : extremely or utterly foolish <an asinine excuse>
2 : of, relating to, or resembling an bottom

A picture of a really nice bottom would do the trick here.
