Bite force is the amount of pressure that a bite causes. The more pressure, the more likely serious injury can result. For example, a well trained guard dog can bite with 550 pounds of pressure
One can accurately measure bite force using a device called a bite force meter, which typically consists of pressure sensors and a computer interface. The person being tested bites down on the sensors, and the device records the amount of force exerted. This measurement can help determine the strength of a person's bite.
A crocodile definitely produces much more bite force. Herpetologist Brady Barr measured the bite force of a great white shark at 669 pounds (303.45 kg). However, this is probably not the best bite force that a great white shark can produce. But, in any case, the shark has such razor-sharp teeth that he doesn't need a greater bite force. He also measured the bite force of a crocodile of South Africa at 2500 pounds (1133.98 kg)! After that, he measured the bite force of a very big Nile crocodile at 5000 pounds (2267.96kg)! This is also the most powerful bite ever measured from any animal. And that was still a defensive bite, despite the brute force that this crocodile produced, as it bit the bite meter only when it was brought in its mouth, while it was resting. If this crocodile had bitten the bite meter while charging at it, especially in water, the bite force would have been even greater.
Brady Barr measured the bite force of a big wolf at 406 pounds (1 pound=0.453 kg). This is equal to 184.15 kg. But it was a defensive bite, as the wolf bit the bite meter only when it was brought in front of its mouth. This means if it had bitten it more aggressively, especially by charging at it, the results would have been even more impressive. This is one of the highest bite forces ever recorded from a canid. However, the bite force of a mastiff was measured by another expert up to 556 pounds. But this was an offensive bite. Also, there is a report of a kangal biting with a force of 743 pounds, but this is not officially confirmed. The rottweiler is also among the canids with the highest bite force (328 pounds), but that bite was delivered by running and jumping on the bite meter, and the wild dogs of Africa generate a bite force of 317 pounds. However, in my opinion, they should have also measured the bite force of the greek shepherd dog "molossus", because it is the most ferocious dog and has an extremely strong physical structure. Three dogs of this breed ("molossus") can drive off a bear! Alexander the great possessed dogs of this breed, which were considered, even at his time, as the strongest -by far- and most ferocious among all breeds of dogs.
Animal with the largest bite force is the saltwater crocodile.
A force meter contains a string because when a force is applied to the meter, it causes tension in the string. This tension is then measured by the force meter and displayed as a force reading, allowing for accurate measurement of the applied force.
The bite force of a Allosaurus from what many paleontology have found was it only had the bite force of a adult male lion. the teeth of it are to small and weak to hold and break it's prey.
aprox. 400-500 pounds. The English Mastiff holds the record of the strongest bite force (500 pounds) for dogs. They measure bite force from the size of their head and English Mastiffs and Saint Bernards have just about the same size head, therefore they basically have the same bite force.
The alligator has an impressive bite force of 3000 pounds. This is equal to 1360.77 kg. It is said that, pound for pound, alligators have the strongest bite force than any other animal in the world. However, a crocodile produces a greater bite force. Brady Barr measured the bite force of a very big Nile crocodile at 5000 pounds (2267.96kg)! And that was still a defensive bite, despite the brute force that the crocodile produced, as it bit the bite meter only when it was brought in its mouth, while it was resting. If this crocodile had bitten the bite meter while charging at it, especially in water, the bite force would have been even greater.
leopard geckos don't bite very hard. its bite force is probably around 15 pounds
The bite force of the Eastern Grey squirrel can exceed 7000 pounds.
The Orcinus orca holds the record as the strongest mammal bite force although it is not 100% clear, and it is based on happening incidents at f.e. Sea World. But the actual known and *recorded* bite force is one of the Crocodilus porosus, also known as the saltwater crocodile. The strongest crocodile bite force is of TIL's with a bite force of 5,000 pounds per square inch (psi). The *thought* and *not clear* orca bite force is 13,000 pounds per square inch (psi).
