The lion no doubt. Even though the wolf has a higher bite force than the lion, still won't help him. We saw a video of a cougar killing a lone wolf. Imagine how a bigger and stronger lion would do. The lion has a larger and fatter canines and long sharp claws. A wolf's skull could fit into lion's mouth.

What is the bite force of the wolf?

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.
