How many Polar Bears would it take to kill one bull African Elephant?

[DP-VikramRana]

A Polar bear has trouble killing a walrus larger than itself and you think 2-3 polar bears can takedown an adult Elephant lol.

Even if there is dozens of polar bears just the sight of full grown african bull elepehant charging towards them would send them running for their lives

But if full grown bull elephant decides he wants to kill every single polar bear he sees then he would kill them and there would be very little for them to do in order to stop titan from stomping on then and lifting each one of them with its trunk and tossing bears into the air

I don't think polar bear can even hurt the elephant when he hits the elephant. if 6 male lions and lioness don't even try, there is a reason to pass on a big dinner

Did you just say 2-3 😂😂 you mad man! You'd need at least 5 Bears to stand any realistic chance of beating the Elephant.

Elephants are capable of grabbing smaller animals using their trunk, which then allows them to step on that animal's spine, neck, or head to crush their bones. If a polar bear or tiger climbed on top of an elephant and tried to bite it's head, it actually won't do as much damage as people think. The elephant's trunk is also capable of reaching up to grab whatever animal is biting it's head, and then slamming that animal to the ground. While there are videos about elephants mortally wounding each other with their tusks after fighting over mates and territory, it should be noted that elephants also use their tusks to dig deep into the ground in order to reach underground water sources. This creates water-ways that eventually becomes hydration sources for many smaller animals such as lions, buffalo, zebra, and rhinos. A more unique activity that many people don't know about is that elephants use their tusks when mining for salt in the underground caves of Kenya.

Many animal biologists consider elephants as an important keystone species that benefits many smaller animals by acting as the landscaper of the natural environment.

Theres a video of literally one single elephant going through a territory full of atleast 15 hippos and crocodiles. All you see is all of them making way for the elephant.

Your “little bit biased” is a great understatement

[Westcoast]

2 or 3 polar bears. That' s ridiculous. You need 20 or something like that

[ivarbremer]

Polar bears would never work together!

[rikomon]

A polar bear is like a dog compared to the elephant. I'd say 50 polar bears could do it

[rudiellen]

I don't think that three can take the elephant down but they can do some serious damage. I think, in the end, the bears would die, possibly although unlikely, the elephant as well.

[hectorvelez]

This guy said 2 polar bears is enough 😂😂😂
I’d say maybe 8 and they’d still struggle

[tariffictypist]

Tbh like 7-10 polar bears
And thats just to seriously injure an elephant let alone kill it

[neiljohnson]

who would win in a fight between a male adult polar bear and Captain America?

[GoGetYourShinebox]

A fully grown elephant? I'd say it'll take at least 5 of your strongest polar bears, and they'd barely manage it. I imagine only 2 or 3 of them would survive

[Fdaolk]

There's really no telling how many polar bears it would take 2 kill a full grown African bull elephant. The elephant wouldn't spend much time tossing around one by one. Would be a long night 😂😂😂

[Dialogical_dailelectrical]

Five male hyenas, vs 5 male wolf whe wins? And for some reason you say the wolves that’s cool now let’s go five females versus five male wolves who wins?

[NaviTheNavajo]

3 will work but I wouldn't trust 2

[StaunchSoldier]

Before i watch id say about 7 eventhough i dont think they'd even try . So my guess is purely hypothetical .

[millec]

Elephant would stomp one while the other struggled to do any real damage to the elephant. Two would have no chance. I'd say 4 at a minimum. Elephants are just too big and I don't think the bears could do enough damage if there's only 2.
