Alligator. I'd rub its tummy to make it catatonic. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 17, 07:53
I will make this harder. Bear or Lion -- nm - Bacon Feb 17, 07:40 11
- Bear. -- nm - Roger More Feb 17, 08:09
- I would make friends with the lion and then we would roam the streets fighting crime and stuff. -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 07:50 1
  - Bear make great spaceship pilots apparently -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 17, 13:40
- How far apart do we start? I think my answer depends on if there's pouncing. -- nm - Ender Feb 17, 07:47 1
  - there is always pouncing. -- nm - groiny Feb 17, 07:50
- Bear or Sharknado? -- nm - Strongbad Feb 17, 07:46 1
  - Wooly mammoth or angry giraffe? -- nm - Loyola Feb 17, 07:49
- I guess bear. -- nm - Krusty Feb 17, 07:45
- lion, they seem lazy -- nm - Beaker Feb 17, 07:44 1
  - What if the lion was on cocaine? *shudder* -- nm - Loyola Feb 17, 07:45
- Bear. Lions look scary. -- nm - Loyola Feb 17, 07:42
alligator -- nm - Beaker Feb 17, 07:38
Alligator. Fewer things to watch out for. -- nm - Roger More Feb 17, 07:35 2
- 74 to 80 teeth. -- nm - Andie Feb 17, 07:37 1
  - All in the one place. -- nm - Roger More Feb 17, 08:08
bear -- nm - decline Feb 17, 07:28 13
- have you people not seen the Revenant???? -- nm - groiny Feb 17, 07:28 12
  - A DeCraprio movie? Hell no. -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 07:30 2
    - He's the next Batman movie villain. -- nm - Bacon Feb 17, 07:31 1
      - ::killfiles you:: -- nm* - Spawn Feb 17, 07:51
  - I for sure wouldn't fight a CGI bear. -- nm - Loyola Feb 17, 07:29
  - have you not seen Lake Placid ? -- nm - decline Feb 17, 07:29 1
    - a gator needs to be able to drag you into the water to dispatch you. - groiny Feb 17, 07:31
  - I skipped that part. Did you not see that kid get dragged off the beach at Disney?!! -- nm - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:29 5
    - I don't think that two year old would have done any better with a bear -- nm - Bacon Feb 17, 07:30 3
      - true. I think I have an unnatural fear of alligators. - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:31 2
        
        You mean this guy here? -- (link) - Bacon Feb 17, 07:36 1
        
        heh -- nm - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:36
    - It was a CHILD. The bear wouldn't have needed to drag it off, it would have been one bite. -- nm - Ender Feb 17, 07:30
A bear, but both would be tough to wrestle. -- nm - Loyola Feb 17, 07:27
Gator. You just have to worry about its jaws. Bears will rip you apart with their claws. -- nm - Ender Feb 17, 07:27
Gator, if you keep the jaws closed (easy lbs per inch on open is very low) no issues. Bear? dead -- nm - Bacon Feb 17, 07:26
A bear. I'm afraid of the alligator's teeth. I know that makes no sense, but I'm very scared of them -- nm - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:26 4
- Bear Claws are no joke - groiny Feb 17, 07:27 1
  - Mmm..bear claws... -- nm - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:27
- THE BEAR HAS TWO MOUTHS!!! -- nm - The Bad Place Feb 17, 07:26 1
  - you need help - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:27
Alligator. I don't think I'd have a chance against a bear. Just too strong and heavy. - Krusty, baseball fanatic Feb 17, 07:25 18
- alligator bites are 2-3x as powerful as a bear - decline Feb 17, 07:32 10
  - I feel like I can better avoid the gator and it'll be much easier to jam something into its mouth - Krusty Feb 17, 07:42
  - Pippy will just wrestle that gator and lock it's jaws closed between her thighs. -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 07:42 2
    - thighs of steel! -- nm - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:47 1
      - pleased to meet you -- nm - groiny, blacksmith Feb 17, 07:57
  - one mouth vs one mouth +2 claws + 800 pounds -- nm - groiny Feb 17, 07:38 5
    - a full grown male alligator weighs as much as a bear. it really comes down to how close they are to water. - decline Feb 17, 07:44 4
      - for sure, if you take water out of the equation, I think the gator is a much less dangerous foe. - groiny Feb 17, 07:46 3
        
        If on land, an alligator. If in the water, there is no answer. -- nm -- Spawn Feb 17 '17, 10:25 -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 07:48 2
        
        As in the great Shark vs Bear dilemma, home field advantage is everything. -- nm - Reagen Feb 17, 07:50
        
        not even in the water, just near enough to water to be dragged in. - groiny Feb 17, 07:49
- yeah, no one can take out a bear. -- nm - groiny Feb 17, 07:26 6
  - I'm not saying the odds are good but it's been done. - Reagen Feb 17, 07:29 2
    - well, I suppose it depends on the size of the bear. - groiny Feb 17, 07:30
    - Alligator eye gouge is easier -- nm - Bacon Feb 17, 07:29
  - Plus, they're rapey. -- nm - Krusty, baseball fanatic Feb 17, 07:28 2
    - heh -- nm - Beaker Feb 17, 07:33
    - so rapey -- nm - Epiphany Feb 17, 07:29
Gator -- nm - J Feb 17, 07:25
