00:00Fights are extremely common in the animal kingdom. These fights can take place due to food,

00:08territorial conflicts, or simply to assert dominance. But whatever it is, the main purpose

00:13is always survival. Have you ever seen a tarantula hawk sting and paralyze a tarantula spider? What

00:18about a few tigers taking down a sloth bear? We have gathered 17 jaw-dropping moments when

00:23animals mercilessly battle with each other. So hold on to your hats and let's get started.

00:30Hippos vs Crocodile. Hippos and crocodiles often cross each other's path as they live in the same

00:40waters. While the crocs are dangerous, hippos are powerful too, so fights break out. Here,

00:47a croc makes a crucial mistake and ends up right in the middle of a bloat of hippos. And these hippos

00:53don't seem to be in a forgiving mood today. All of them start to attack the lone croc. While much of

00:58the action happens underneath the water, you can clearly see the croc being lifted in the

01:02mouth of one of the hippos. The bigger animals are not only able to lift the crocodile easily,

01:08but also chucks it away with force. Even though the victim of the attack doesn't seem mortally wounded,

01:13we're sure it'll think twice before messing with another hippo for the rest of its life.

01:18Hippos don't really need to rely on their comrades for help when fighting a crocodile,

01:23as this next clip proves. Here, the hippo and her cub are standing in the water peacefully

01:28when a crocodile approaches. The hippo mother doesn't take kindly to the threat to her child.

01:33When the croc makes the mistake of opening its mouth, the hippo loses its mind. It too opens its

01:38jaws and almost crushes the crocodile between her powerful teeth. Somehow, the water predator escapes

01:44that bite. That crocodile should be thankful that it managed to escape with its life from that

01:49situation. The hippo could have easily bested it if the fight continued.

01:54Wild Dogs vs. Lions A pack of wild dogs is one of the most frightening sights for prey,

02:00since these animals are vicious and kill without mercy. These wild dogs go up against a mother

02:05lioness and her cub. The prize catch is the cub. With no pride to provide support, this lioness must defend

02:12her cub by herself. She fights off hordes of wild dogs even when the dogs deliver quick and painful bites

02:17to her. The lioness maintains composure and doesn't allow the wild dogs to distract her from her cub for

02:23long enough. What a badass mother. Wild dogs' core strength lies in their numbers, but if there is a

02:30one-to-one battle between a wild dog and a lion, the story will be totally different. This lioness has

02:35captured a wild dog and holds the animal by the neck. Since the wild dog doesn't fight or struggle,

02:41the lioness and the spectators nearby think that it is already dead. Another wild dog distracts the lioness

02:46long enough and she drops the dead dog. But like magic, the dead wild dog comes back to life.

02:53It seems it was simply acting dead to escape the lioness's jaws. As soon as it was free,

02:58it ran out of there. Now that's a unique strategy to escape from predators.

03:03But the act of death doesn't play out every time in the right way. In this clip, a pack of wild dogs

03:09plan to steal a wildebeest that the lions have killed. But before they can make a move, the lions

03:14attack viciously and capture one of the dogs. After the attack, it seems as if the wild dog is dead,

03:20but if you look closely, you can see that it's still moving. After finding the perfect opportunity,

03:25the injured wild dog flees from the scene with a lion close in pursuit. But the kings of the jungles

03:30were completely fooled this time around. Unfortunately, the injured wild dog was wounded so badly

03:36that he couldn't hurt anymore and ultimately died. Hyena vs Leopard

03:41Just like wild dogs and lions, leopards and hyenas also compete for food. A leopard had eyes on this

03:47impala, same as a hyena. But it's the hyena that manages to capture the half-dead prey.

03:53When the leopard arrives on the scene, the hyena flees momentarily, leaving the fresh impala corpse

03:58for the big cat to feed on. Then it's the hyena that reclaims the kill. This back and forth goes on

04:04for a while before finally the leopard manages to walk off with the remaining impala corpse. Even though

04:10there wasn't a clear winner in this bout, it's entertaining to see how interactions between

04:14these two animals usually proceed. In this one, the hyena is chomping on the meat of a kill it made

04:20when a leopard walks up and tries to steal it. But the hyena is having none of that. The big cat

04:26doesn't straight up attack the hyena as the resulting fight can injure it or worse. A leopard is no lion when

04:32it comes to sheer strength. So, the animal figures out a different tactic. It waits for the hyena to be

04:37distracted. At that opportune moment, the leopard simply grabs the kill and jumps onto a nearby tree.

04:44The hyena misses by inches as the kill slips from its reach. The leopard wins simply because of its

04:50impressive climbing skills. Tiger vs Bear

04:54Tigers and bears. These are two of the most feared predators in the jungle. But what happens when these

05:00two clash? Here, the tiger sisters are reunited after a long time. Even though these animals hunt solo

05:07most of the time, today, the sisters plan to get an animal together. Their target is none other than

05:13a huge sloth bear. This is one prey that would require the united efforts of all these adult tigers to

05:19bring down. Even though the bear could have fought off one or two tigers attacking simultaneously,

05:24it cannot hope to survive this ambush. It tries to flee but before long, is choked out by the big cats.

05:31In this clip, you can see a mother sloth bear with her cub engaged in some playful activities.

05:36But they don't know that a male tiger is nearby, keeping a close eye and plotting an attack. When

05:42the tiger strikes, the mother sloth bear has very little in the way of defense. Even though it's

05:47difficult to make out because of the foliage, you can see that the sloth bear doesn't go down.

05:52She's trying to save her cub from the tiger, but the clip ends with the tiger carrying off the bear's

05:57limp body. Seagull-handedly taking out a bear, now that's an impressive achievement.

06:025. Mongoose vs Cape Cobra

06:05Mongoose and snakes not only hate each other, but also prey on each other. In this video,

06:10a yellow mongoose faces off against a Cape Cobra snake. Even though it's a highly venomous snake,

06:16the mongoose doesn't seem the least bit bothered by that. The serpent raises its head and lashes out

06:21several times, but misses the attacking mongoose by inches. The mongoose, on the other hand,

06:26tries to peck at the viper, but can't seem to get close because of the constant barrage of attacks.

06:32The Cape Cobra is the first to realize that fleeing would be best and slithers away. The

06:37mongoose keeps following and attacking until the snake vanishes inside a hole in the ground.

06:42Mongoose are hardy animals that often act as bodyguards for defenseless creatures. In this clip,

06:48a squirrel tries to fight a Cape Cobra, but gives up midway because it's too risky for the small

06:53rodent. That's when a mongoose jumps into action and begins a serious fight. Watch how it jumps out

06:59of the way when the serpent strikes the first time. But the cobra doesn't miss its mark the next time

07:04and bites the mongoose on the face. That's all that the mongoose is willing to take and the fight

07:09ends decisively. The snake wins this round. Cats vs Dogs

07:14Well, there's perhaps no rivalry older than that between cats and dogs. And when we make a list of

07:20animals fighting, we can't leave off our very own pets, can we? In the first one, a cat has taken

07:26refuge on top of a tree, but this dog is relentless in its search. As it shakes the tree violently,

07:32the poor cat falls off and the dog immediately jumps on it. The larger dog is easily able to

07:37dominate the cat, putting it down on the ground while biting at it. Thankfully, the feline escapes,

07:43but the dog is right on its tail. Not every cat caught in such a situation is as lucky.

07:49In this clip, two dogs corner a cat and they seem to end the cat's life as brutally as possible.

07:55One of the dogs bite onto the cat and attacks it viciously. This is no playful fight. It's a battle

08:00to the death. The other dog also joins in on the attack. First, you can see that the cat is gravely

08:06injured. A few more bites in, the feline's body falls limp. We wonder why didn't the dog's owner stop

08:13them from killing this cat. More importantly, is it the owner filming this brutal attack?

08:18Whatever the reason, that cat simply didn't deserve this death.

08:22Once again, a cat is brutally attacked by a dog, and we can't help but blame the owners.

08:27The cat notices dogs closing in and tries to flee, but this mutt looks like it has been waiting for

08:32the cat to make a move. As soon as it does, the dog is on it. It's surprising just how quickly the dog

08:38bites down and ends the cat's life. By the time the owners finally arrive at the scene,

08:42the damage has been done. The poor feline is barely moving, and it doesn't look like it survived.

08:48What a tragedy.

08:50Tarantula Hog vs. Tarantula Spider

08:53Snakes aren't the only ones that poison their prey. A tarantula hawk is a bug that stings

08:58tarantula spiders and paralyzes them. Then, they carry the spider's limp body to their nests

09:04and lay eggs inside them. When the eggs hatch, the larva feeds on the tarantula from the inside.

09:10Yeah, that sounds straight out of a horror movie, doesn't it?

09:12Here, you can see just how this process to capture a tarantula starts.

09:16The bug stings the spider several times before it is completely paralyzed.

09:22Wolves vs. Wolves

09:24Fights don't always break out between different types of animals. Sometimes, the struggle occurs

09:29between animals of the same species. These are mostly for dominance or territorial

09:33control. These two wolf packs are vying for the control of one specific region.

09:39The only way to settle this dispute is to start an all-out war. The packs face each other and

09:44prepare to attack. Then, they charge. One of the packs has fewer members, putting them on the back

09:50foot. The wolves bite and attack one another brutally. But in the end, the current rulers are

09:55driven out and the new pack takes control. Seeing this reminds us that these animals aren't all that

10:01different from us humans. Don't miss that celebration in the end though. These wolves

10:06seem really pleased with themselves. Kangaroo vs. Kangaroo

10:11Kangaroo is also faced similar in fighting to decide who would lead a group. When a challenger

10:16comes forward, the existing leader must engage in an all-out fight. That's what happens in this video.

10:21The two kangaroos seem bloody serious about the fight. When the match finally begins,

10:26each kangaroo jumps up and delivers really strong kicks. It looks like a kickboxing match and we're

10:32sure each of those hits carry immense power. Finally, after a long standoff, one of the kangaroos

10:38submits and the other one is declared victorious.

10:42Well, what did you think about these fights between animals? Well, one thing's for sure. The world is a

10:47much more brutal place especially for animals who have to look out for themselves. Still, we hope you
