    As powerful as bears are, they do tend to struggle with large hefty beasts like bison and so try to control the head and back. The issue here is Daeodon's powerful jaws could likely crush the limbs of the bear if given any opportunity. As for the intelligence, that is a good point, but sometimes aggression and strength overcome this. See multiple encounters between moose/bison and bears. The bear's best bet is to try snapping the entelodont's neck, but the hungry hungry hippo has pulverizing jaws that make attacking the front very dangerous. However, I have seen videos of bears attacking animals like pigs and cattle from behind, pinning them and attacking their spines. That could favor the bear, but that would be hard to land. I favor Daeodon just because its massive head and jaws should counter against most of a bear's normal tricks.

    This really is an interesting matchup, personally I believe the Arctodus would be victorious due to it's higher intelligence as well as it's more diverse fighting experience due to the prey and predators they would have lived with. The Daeodon seems like an opponent that would be very head strong and try to rush at the Bear similarly to how most large herbivores with front heavy weaponry are, which I think the Bear would bait out in order to deal heavy blows that the less agile Daeodon wouldn't be able to react to in time. It'd definitely be close but I do see the Arctodus coming out the victor more often than the Daeodon, but I could definitely see a scenario where both sustain mortal wounds that neither would survive from long term.

    Grizzlies can hunt Bison, which are similarly dangerous on the front end & with similar proportions in their builds. Bear pelt is also made to be highly puncture resistant, reducing the severity of Daedon's crushing jaws, albeit not completely. In a straight-up fight I think the Daedon would probably severely wound the Bear & drive it off, but in the wild Arctodus could use the exact same tactics it instinctively used to bring down Bison to regularly hunt the Daedon.

    honestly I would say that with the skillset on both animals and their sort of build/adaptations that it could be more of an even match, but that due to the hell pig's ability to bite straight at the short-faced bear's gut if the bear chose to try intimidation, I think the hell pig definitely would have a greater chance of at least taking further advantage of the bear's weaknesses while the bear could have trouble going around the hell pig's sturdy jaws

    3:27 the Agriotherium Africanum was, as its name indicate, from Africa (there are other Agriotherium subspecies). An A. Simus relative from South America was the Arctotherium Angustidens, which was bigger than the Arctodus Simus. About the knock the head off of a moose by grizzlies, I read in some forum a supposed piece of a paper or book that said that 1-a biologist couldn't believe it until he saw it, 2-the same biologist noticed that the attachment of the head of a moose is extremely weak. Now it didn't say what was the exact subspecies, as north Americans tend to call "grizzly" to any American brown bear, when there are some variants that differ in size, and the one that should be called "grizzly" due to its grizzled coat is the smallest, the interior north American brown bear (Ursus Arctos Horriblis). Then there are a lot of videos of grizzly bears hitting with their paws at other animals, especially at wolves, and in not one of those videos saw any damage or even the slightest effect on the wolf, apart from a short lived psychological one...The only video I saw any effect was in a fight between two American coastal brown bears in which one swipe at the other and clawing at the same time, from behind, in the back, damaging the skin, letting a piece hanging, but that was a swipe with clawing and only damaged the skin. Then there are a lot of videos of brown bears hunting/killing and there is no one in which their swipes do anything other than get the paws in place for grabbing or clawing or pushing. What stands out from brown bears is the stamina, the way they use their weight for controlling an animal, their use of wrestling when fighting with each other, their ferocity for their size, their ability to quickly do damage to dogs (when the bears are wild ones and not those declawed, defanged, emaciated and tortured, tied to a post ones) but only when they get a hold of them, not by striking them, that, evidently, does nothing. Now, there could be a difference between a strike when at four legs, slightly on two or fully on two, and that is missing in videos.

    Could you imagine the sounds you would hear when those two fought , deep bellowing roars that would be deafening, high pitched squeals and snorting, sound of bones crunching or ripping sounds as they tore into each other, I believe the bear would win because it has more weapons that the pig, the bear has teeth, claws and a thick pelt and a thick muscular body that offers a lot of resistance to puncture by fangs of other animals ,while the pig only has its massive jaws that could only deliver real damage with some type of crushing injury to the bear maybe getting a good bite on the bears arm or leg to cripple it , probably the ideal move would be if the Pig managed to grab the bears whole head or neck in its jaws and deal a death blow but I think the bear is too agile and smart to allow that to happen, I think the bear would dispatch the pig by swatting at the pigs head every time it came close and simply beat it to death

If it found itself facing up something that can stand to 3 meters, it’s lower intelligence would basically cause it to be more fearful of the Bear.

    I'd lean with the bear. I think that the hell pig would come straight ahead, just like I've seen boars and warthogs do and the bear would swipe at the sides of it's head, and a swipe may not break the pig's neck or crush it's skull but it should knock it's head to the side, after which the bear attacks the top of the pig's head and neck, grappling with it's front paws, and pressing it's weight down on the hell pig to keep it's head down and mouth pointed away from the bear's body. If it can't deliver a lethal bite here, it may cause the hell pig to fall over, where it can attack the pig's underside before the hell pig can get upright again.

    I think that if bear manish to ambush daedon it could win bcs if bike it back or hit daedon's back legs. If grizzly are caipuble to kill moose at 1 swing i dont see why arctodus cant brake daedon's legs or it lower back. Like i said this could work but only if bear manish to ambush daedon or bait it and then strike behind

    The bear has much better agility and has arms which can grapple and manipulate the prey to their need. Their huge paws have claws with tremendous force behind them. The bear also has alot of fur and loose skin making it hard to penetrate. They have the ability to stand on two legs which is a huge advantage. Bears today are known to take down wild boars simular to their own size. Leopards, jags, pumas, black- and brownbears take down wild boars equal to their size. Lions kill hippos their size. Tigers kills crocodiles and so on. Altough the daeodon had a big mouth, it wouldnt say much in a fight. It need other ways to defend it self. Their big neck would actually work against it when their ability to turn their head is difficult. The big mouth helps, but isnt the winning factor here. The daeodons tight skin would get ripped apart fast from the bears claws and teeth. It would struggle to turn if the bears get a hold of its side or back due to its anatomy. Their legs had hoof like feet and low flexibility. They become useless in this fight. If it falls its done. If the bears fall it would most likely get up. Other than a big mouth, the daeodon has no advantages. This fight isnt so close many here thinks. The bear would probably always win this fight.

    I think the piggy would win in a straight-up fight, but they went extinct not from being unable to fight, but they are TOO specialized to maul and kill. What good is being a T-rex when you are in the alps, where everything is small and not worth it. To make things worse, there is a smaller, smarter competitor that regurlarly eats what it hunts before you have time to catch up to it (to bully it off), and regurlarly HUNTS you from time to time if it's timed right. In a long game of survival, the bear easily wins. In a short fight, pig wins.

    Ok, the if your pictures were the accurate size of the bear, then the cave bear was FAR larger, being nine feet on all fours.

    Personally I don't think it'd be more than medium difficulty. Daeodon were just too big for them, they're used to taking down alot smaller prey, and certainly not those that have huge mouths/teeth like that and can actually kill them.

    I say pig holds the win. The pigs mouth could out pig the short faced bear. Like a hippo vs a lion. 1 on 1 the lion will loose.😮 A bear has issue with 🫎 But remember the moose does not bite or out bite the bear. Like the moose the pig can ram and stomp. If they were smaller the bear could maybe win. But they are gigantic. The old saying plays role here. The bigger they are the harder they fall.😂😅🎉

    Nah, you disregaurd the bears skin and fur vs smooth skin. The bear bleeds it out after the first few exchanges and wins. Bears ARE tanks. Also watch a bear kill a full grown moose and tell me that bears losing to a pig that can only bite lmfao.

    This channel is an L, this guy has never really looked into the grappler effect animals across the board use today to take out much larger opponents or never been in a martial arts gym where grappling of some kind is done. What does the hell pig do if (more like when) the bear get past its jaws and gets to its side….nothing it flails around until it gets exhausted and dies.
