Tape worm. Rubbish - Penguin has more mass i.e. bigger
Coral. I like it. You'd be favourite there alright. 15 mins to simply tear it apart.
Wolf - you lie. Nearly as implau ...[text shortened]... h your attack. Dubious as to whether you could actually knock Panda out though... Thoughts?
Originally posted by Jonny daye, panda's are still bears with all the strenght and viscousness that goes with is. It's only because tehy have such a useless diet (that they will boost with meat if it's kind enought to die for them) that they can't afford to expend energy except when absolutely necessary.

I don't know about sloths. Can they move when they want to? I've seen the claws on those things - they're like daggers!
[edit] I was relying on the blue whale suffocating under it's own mass due to being out of water for 15 minutes... but seeing as they can hold their breath for much longer than this, unless their circulation gave out I don't think the bugger would cack it fast enough

Starrman - that thing is big and size wise you'd win. Your problem might be in the conditions - if you're 'at home' room won't be filled with sea water before the fight. If you're 'away' though...
Originally posted by malingaI reckon I could hold my breath long enough to tear it into pieces, although it owuld have to be one of the less poisonous ones...

Originally posted by StarrmanI managed to tackle down a rohdesian ridgeback aged about 10. So I'd probably go for a medium dog as well.
A penguin? Seriously? Surely anyone could see off a penguin!
I reckon I could take a medium sized dog, provided it wasn't bred for fighting. Something like a dalmatian perhaps.
Originally posted by StarrmanTrue. And I was friendly with it. The buggers go after lions. But I know its weak spot; ankles. So if you kicked them hard in the ankle and got it down, I'm sure a few football hooligan style stomps on the head would knock it out; it'd probably kill it.
Yeah, but I bet you couldn't knock one unconscious, they're powerful dogs.
edit: Are we supposed to take into consideration the morality of beating up animals? For example, I'd have no problem having a fight with an angry bastard animal like a lion (in a moral sense, because I know it could kick my ***), whereas if I was fighting a poodle, I'd have a problem because it is a poor defenceless animal.
Originally posted by Freddie2006Hmm, not so sure, as you said, they take out lions... I reckon it would be back up around your throat before you could get a second kick in. dalmatians are far more trusting.

Originally posted by malingaGah! The poison's only in the tendrils, if I came at it dome-on I could rip it apart and still make it free if the current wasn't too strong.
Poison???!! Good God man, are you mad?
You get no advantages like a feckin suit! Might as well give you weapons if you're going down that route. Money is back on Medusa either home or away now I know about the poison.
