Bear vs. Shark

Given a relatively level playing field- ie, water deep
enough so that a Shark could maneuver proficiently, but
shallow enough so that a Bear could stand and operate with
it's characteristic dexterity- who would win in a fight
between a Bear and a Shark?

a shark
much faster and accurate. I mean, I bear would try to give
the shark a punch first, but the shark moves so fast that it
attacks the bear from behind. A bear would be chanceless.

would win, but we ain't arre we?

but the sharrk has no thrroat, the tigerrs instinct says
'thrroat thrroat thrroat' it's doomed if therre is no
thrroat to gnaw at.

Really good book. I recommend it to all.

Actually, it has little to do with bears or sharks.

out

dude haven't you ever seen spaceghost?

Bears+Sharks=Mother Nature's Best Friends

cause they're so fierce they get along very well. the bear
just walks along a stream while the shark swims.

also, sharks are filled with m80's instead of sexual glands

There is a weakness situated above the sharks eyes on their
dorsal side called the "dorsal cap". Even a human can punch
through this relatively weak area and expose the
brain....not good for the shark. There is very little
material in that area - it's used for generating electric
pulses and the placement of cartilage weakens the outgoing
signal.

If the bear managed to exploit this weakness (isn't too
hard), it would be game over.

We have no idea whether the sharks teeth (granted there over
3000 of them), would be able to penetrate the bears skin
with enough depth to cause significant injury. And
then.....would the shark have enough strength in its body to
be able to move a giaganitc bear that is firmly rooted on
the ground.

THis match would never occur in the first place, but it
would have to be a pretty huge shark to claim a victory IMO.

ditto

---------
in any event, if they both were to fight to the death, in
shollow water the bear would probably not drown, but out of
the water at all, the shark would die.

So I could see the bear taking some damage while dragging
the shark out, then that's it.

See I think the bear has the advantage with it's paws, it
can swipe without comiting it's whole mass to that movement,
the shark is fucking all mouth and the body goes with it.

This is actually a cool topic, I would want to give the bear
a fighting chance, I bet he could fuck that shark up.

I think so too. There ain't much that would mess up a bear
- besides a bullet. Given that it is possible to kill a
shark with human hands......

Notice how I said "mess" instead of "fuck".

the bear would beat the shit out of the shark and the shark
would die. but, the bear would bleed to death afterwards
from the injuries he would recieve.

case closed.

i'd have to say the BEAR.....his two arms with 4-6 inch
claws would rip the sharks relatively unprotected skin to
shreads.

the shark would get a mouthful O fur the first testing
bite......by then it would be over.

the bear would be having a BBQ with shark
steaks......mmmmmmm

the problem with your theory is that bears don' got no
thumbs so they wouldn't be able to light the charcoal. them
child proof lighters are also (possibly intentionally) bear
proof. therefore bar be que-ing shark would be rather
difficult. it would have to be shark sashimi.

Shark vs. Bear


 

offline Snakejuice from Eastern (Western Sahara) on 2003-07-19 01:48 [#00785933]

depends on the size and species of each.

A polar bear would rip the shit out of a great white, they
gotta deal with orcas, normally. Kodiak bears are
notoriously vicious. Also, bears that snag fish in streams
are accustomed to the swimming motion of finned animals and
have damn good reflexes if they're catching em through the
water.
Plus, I can steal the m80s from the dead shark and the roman
candles from the dead bear.

It all depends on the circumstances, IMO.. if the bear was
just swimming in the lake minding his own business the shark
could fuck his shit right up, as long as he bit down around
its head/neck area... other than that I think the bear would
win but would more than likely bleed to death.

course, I think we mentioned above (I ain't rereading this
post, that's for sure)

that the bear has more versatile weapons in it's claws.

The shark only has a mouth.

Now, if the shark gets its mouth on the bear, game fucking
over, but the bear has a much better chance of getting at
the shark with its claws and teeth and shit.

The bear of course, but mainly because it is an invisible
bear. It is also a powerful robot. The shark has no chance
in fact.
