The lion would win, hands down, through sheer physical strength. It is much bigger (weighing 500 lbs), much stronger and more aggressive than the hyena (weighing 100 lbs, and that's quite rare). A hyena wouldn't stand a chance, the lion would end the fight quickly. As a matter of fact, hyenas, even when they're with the pack, generally flee when a male lion appears, so I seriously doubt a lone hyena would dare take on a lion.

That's true. It's very common, that a lone male lion (without a pride) will attack a pack of hyenas, split them up, and maybe hunt down one or two.

A gorilla has great strength that can knock out the hyena immediately by charging and grabbing it. Since gorillas have tough skin and longer canines to protect it from the hyena from biting it, the gorilla will totally beat the hyena.

One on one, a cougar. Hyenas are usually traveling in numbers where as a cougar is solitary. Under this circumstance, multiple hyenas would win.

Who would win a cougar or husky?

Cougar all the way!! Even 3 huskies on one cougar- still the cougar. The adult cougar far outweighs the individual adult husky, but three well-experienced large dogs may take the big cat down. Circumstances of the encounter will be determined by vigor- and the instinct to survive. The most likely outcome would be that the cougar escapes the canid attack, to avenge at a later time.


Jaguar vs cougar who would win?

Jaguar vs cougar. The jaguar is 8.5 feet long and weighs 210 - 320 pounds at average. The cougar is 7 - 7.5 feet long and weighs 150 - 200 pounds at average. A jaguar is bigger, stockier, and more muscled. The bite is almost as strong as a lions or tigers bite, and the teeth are huge. The jaguar and cougar may fight a bit, but the jaguar, if pinned, will bite the cougar in the chest and then finish the cougar off by biting the head. Jaguars are more powerful. But cougars are far more aggresive than jaguars and may bite the jaguar on the neck if pinned before the jaguar can bite back, but the jaguar would win if showing aggresion first. Jaguars are heavier than pumas, but not longer. Male jaguars weigh 150-210 pounds on average, although a few may reach 300 pounds. Puma males average 125-160 pounds, but may reach 200.
