There are no significant differences between Alaskan malamutes and Siberian huskies. However they have slightly different shaped heads and huskies have blue eyes and malamutes have brown eyes. They are bred for exactly the same thing. They are both high energy dogs that are completely nuts but very lovable.... for the right owner.

There are major differences between the two breeds. Siberians can have brown, blue, one brown and one blue, or brown-and-blue eyes. Malamutes and Siberians are not bred for "exactly the same thing" at all. Please visit akc.org and search the two breeds for complete information on each.

Ok.

1. They're called a Siberian Husky

2. Alaskan Malamutes are wider, can only have brown eyes, and are built for bulk and not speed.

3. Siberian Huskies are thinner, can only have blue eyes, and are built for speed and not bulk.

Probably the Alaskan malamute since it has more muscles, thicker bulk, and more strength. The Siberian husky is better at fighting and is faster compared with the malamute, but the malamute weighs more than the husky. Most likely, an alaskan malmute will win because of its bulk and strength.

Huskies are less aggressive the majority of the time. They are usually slightly (only very slightly mind) smaller built.
