Mature tigers are the undisputed top of the food chain but buffalo are formidable prey and tigers would not attempt to hunt grown elephants. Tigers' worst enemies are humans and bacteria.

Water buffalo have been known to use their horns successfully on tigers. And lowly bacteria from injuries and teeth decay can weaken or kill a tiger.
Saltwater crocodiles have been known to kill and feed on bengal, sumatran, and indochinese tigers in water. Male saltwater crocodiles over 16 ft can easily kill any tiger in water. Large reticulated pythons prey on bengal, sumatran, and indochinese tigers by ambush. The reticulated python mainly eats tigresses. In India, very large packs of dholes are known to kill and eat bengal tigers.
The Japanese. They hate the Japanese.

Humans, for the most part, as they continue to encroach upon the Gir forest lands, where the last Asian lions live. The government in India currently has plans to relocate some of the lions to another similar area, to start another colony in southwest India.
