Lions definitely have size on their side. On all fours, fully-grown lions can stand around four to five feet tall. Imagine if they walked around on their hind legs! They’re still intimidating close to the ground as they weigh in almost three times more than the average weight of a human. An animal this hefty is already a force to be reckoned with, but don’t forget that lions are carnivores, making them doubly dangerous.Anyone who’s had a scratch off a house cat knows the sharp sting of their claws. Lions, their much bigger cousins, have proportionately larger claws and teeth.They may be called canines, but a lion can wield its fang-like chompers to deadly effect.

The first level of defense for a lion is its almighty roar. Starting out with a tame warning, a male lion’s roar can echo for up to five miles as a way to ward off potential foes.
When this doesn’t work, things get physical. Same way house cats will bat you away when they don’t want to be pet, lions use their paws as defense to push away attackers.They also have speed. Not nearly as fast as cheetahs, lions can still run up to 35 mph. This makes it quite easy for them to get away from threatening situations.Though it ties in with their offense strategy, one way a lion ensures its own defense is by hunting in groups.A lioness rarely goes out alone, moving in pairs or in threes. This way, whichever one plays offense on the hunt is protected by another one or two members of her pride.Safety in numbers. Although sometimes it’s danger in numbers, and all three end up on the offense against their prey

Crocodiles

While lions obviously stand taller than crocodiles, the reptiles have the mammals beat in length and weight. Crocodiles can grow anywhere from 5 feet to a whopping 23 feet long including their tails.They can also weight a massive 2,000 lbs, guaranteeing that even the shorter tails can pack a punch when whipped around.Some researchers say that the crocodile’s thick, water-proof skin is bullet proof against some basic ammunitions. Even if this weren’t true, a crocodile’s scales do offer up more armor-like protection than a lion’s skin.

A crocodile’s best defense is its versatility. This is a gift that comes from having amphibious traits. Crocodiles are able to stay underwater for up to five hours without needing to breathe or risking water in their eyes and lungs. If something on land is threatening it, a crocodile can just slip into the water – and vice versa. They’re not creatures known to run away from a fight though. Like felines, crocodiles will hiss to warn off potential attackers.Determine enemies who ignore this warning sound have to face the full weight of a crocodile’s smile.Its best known attribute is a crocodile’s mouth. Unlike alligators, you can see a croc’s bottom teeth even when their mouth is shut. Count them all and you’ll be faced with 80 pearly whites compared to a lion’s mere 30.
