Yeah, but have you seen them trying to get down?
They go too far and get stuck, you have to call the fire brigade and it's a right old rigmarole...

I've been at a zoo at tiger feeding time
and they'd tied chickens and lumps of other meat to the top of telegraph poles, probably 15-20 feet up.

The tigers were released, ran across the enclosure and jumped pretty much straight to the top, grabbed the meat and jumped down again. All about 3 metres in front of me.

Awesome stuff

It's not better
It's just different.

I know it's not better

because tigers are better than lions

Lions are smaller, and they get their women to do all the killing.

tigers are clearly better

I'm not quite sure anyway
I was just playing lion's advocate.
They are the king of the jungle.
