Because there are still many people who think that both lions and tigers live in Africa, they wonder which of these two big cats would win if they came to face each other.
But there is not a single wild tiger in Africa. Tigers are native to Asia, with one species living in the warm regions of India, and another species inhabiting the colder regions of northern China and Siberia. Therefore, there is no way for a lion and a tiger to fight in Africa.
The lion, however, does not live only in Africa. Some can also be found in Asia, especially in the country of Iraq and some parts of India. Therefore, if a lion and a tiger were to be found in nature - which is unlikely - it would be in Asia, not Africa.
And if they faced off, the tiger would probably win. The male tiger is larger than the lion, sometimes growing to a length of 3 meters from the nose to the tip of its tail. Large tigers are also more powerful than large lions.
The disadvantage of the tiger is that, unlike the lion, it is a solitary animal. The lions attack in groups, which would give them an advantage if both felines lived in the same area.
