Well Cross, lets start with baboonous Ghetotus. How many pounds you think these go?

The title on this one does disapoint though.

Nice to see how the Hussein voters while away the time between welfare checks.......

I'm starting to think the use of hair extensions is a defense mechanism like the lizards that shed their tails. Wearing your real hair is an obvious disadvantage........ grin

What? Are you kidding, the rest of us should stick our heads up our azzes so we can see the world from his point of view.

Wolverines are bad-ass critters. The wolf finally took enough punishment from its bites and gave up on the idea. Where was the wolf's fighting magic in this scene? He must, no doubt, have run out of magic wolf dust.

Oh, and by the way, I thought wolves don't fight other critters. I thought they simply killed them outright. What happened to that theory here?

Well?

Well?

Not my fight browneye. I have to get to work.
Damb I phone. Obviously the wolf/badger fight was over some bodies kill or opertunistic find. As to a wolf and a pitbull, they will never fight in an organized pit. They will only meet on the wolf terms in the wild. Advantage wolf. I'm no fricken bioligist and niether are you. Stick to the food forum, you are at least 75% credable there and 90% tolurable.

Not meant to be directed at you. It was directed at the folks who told me that wolves don't fight other critters smaller than them, i.e., that they somehow bypass the fight stage and move directly to the kill stage. Why didn't the wolf just choose not to fight that wolverine and move directly to killing him? Answer: Because wolves have no magical ability to skip over the fight stage and move directly to the kill stage. They first have to win a fight when the predator they're after is willing to give them a fight back.

Interesting clip. I smell a rat there though. A wolverine SIGHTING is a rare thing, much less a wolf sighting. This guy gets the two fighting? Seems unrealistic and I could be wrong but...

I'd say these were two captive animals that got exploited for the sake of some film drama. You know, Marty Stouffer style.

Next question: Pitbull vs Wolverine?

Who knows the context of that video? I don't and neither do you. I do know a pitbull ain't a wolverine.

True. Pitbulls have more powerful jaws, larger more powerful bodies, and are more game than wolverines.

I believe I've seen a longer version of this clip before, and what they were initially filming was a wolf finding a kill, who then got challenged by a wolverine who wanted to drive him off the kill. Wolf was determined to keep the kill, so a fight ensued.

The photographer may well have planted the kill, though, to attract some carnivores to it for filming.

Have you done bite force tests on wolverines?

A pitbull is more 'game' than a wolverine? Please explain how you could possibly know that.

It's possible.

Stouffer was a fraud though.

Because there are no game wild animals. Gameness only comes about with domestication and intentional breeding for that characteristic. That's because it's a survival-non-adaptive trait, thus it cannot develop in nature.

Please define 'gameness'.

Insults notwithstanding, this is a fascinating thread. Somebody correct me but I believe there is no discernable DNA difference between a wolf and a dog, even a yorkie. Also, some of these huge gogs that were "designed" to protect sheep from wolves like a Great Pyhrenees for example, do they stand a chance with a wolf?

On the subject of Pit Bulls, they scare me more than lions. Many years ago in South Florida, the inbred neightbor of a friend of mine used to raise Pits and other dogs, icluding two very BIG and mean Dobermans. One day one of the Pits got out by chewing, yes chewing though a wire fence and in the process, killed the two Dobermans and yes even one of my friend's horses. They found the horse dead with a destroyed rear leg and the Pit Bull dying with it's head so swollen from the horse's attempts at kicking itself free. So, I'm not an expert other than to say my dear and departed female JRT Maggie would kick a wolf's ass (well at least in her own mind!) but if I were a wolf, I'd avoid those Pit Bulls..

keep in mind ive rarely seen the dogs run singally, usually see 3 or 4 or more per flock.....the ranchers know enough to stack the fight in the dogs odds....
