Do tigers eat lions

Answer 1

The habitat ranges of these two creatures do not overlap, but if they do predation of Lions by Tigers is likely since Tigers are known to stalk and prey on mega fauna like bears,crocodiles, elephants and rhinos. The closest their habitats come is in India, and recently when Indian govt. wanted to reintroduce Lions in a national park in the state of Uttar Pradesh, rangers and wild life biologists were preempting and planning for possible predation of Lions by Tigers, since Bengal Tigers are arund 25% bigger in size than normal African lions, moreover Asiatic lions are a little smaller than their African cousins.

Answer 2

As a rule, no.

Tigers live in Asia, almost all lions live in Africa. They don't meet.

There is an Asian lion - very few remaining - but it's smaller than the tigers and would probably prefer to stay away.

It's generally rare for meat eaters to go after other, similarly sized meat eaters. There's too much risk of getting injured for this to make sense.

Answer 3

Tigers and lions are both carnivores and have been known to eat each other in rare cases, particularly in the wild or in captivity where they are forced to coexist. However, this behavior is not typical and tigers and lions do not usually hunt each other as prey.

Answer 4

No. They are found in different parts of the world, and besides, tigers are larger than lions, and more powerful, so a lion would have a tough time eating a tiger.
