I don’t think a human, of either sex, could defeat ANY cat (house or lion).

Rats are questionable as well.

Everything above Goose will kill unarmed woman and everything above Eagle will kill unarmed man - as you go up the scale, the time it takes for the kill decreases dramatically until the top 3 or 4 when the kill time is measured in seconds.

Only 76% of men think they can take out a rat?

This country is done, and don’t waste a fork stickin it.

I think it was Barbara Tuchman in one of her historical books that told of a ‘sport’ in the Middle Ages. A cat was nailed to a board by its scruff, and a man (obviously not a nobleman or someone with an IQ > 75 would attempt to beat the cat to death with his face.

No human would stand a chance against an angry chimp either male or female. To quote the Grateful Dead, ‘they’ll steal the face right off of your head’.

Elephant? Don’t be silly.

But it is interesting that the humans are disarmed in the ‘contest’ while the animals retain their weapons. The use of weapons is what made us dominant.

A lioness at one time used be as a salt lick and put her front paws on my shoulders to get a look at me. I was in no way inclined to start a fight; most animals avoid conflict. This is a true story.

I once had kill a very large feral tom cat that I was trying to save from a dog.

That cat bit right through my thumb and wouldn’t let go.

I put that cat on the ground and “Packed” it until I broke every bone in it’s body.

I think everything on the list lesser than the chimp would be in big trouble fighting with most men.

Side note* Who in the world thinks a goose could win a fight with any man? Goose hunters wring their necks millions of times a year without fail. A goose winning is a joke.
