the mountain lion is one of the deadliest big cats out there not the strongest i agree but one of
the most successful surely it is the biggest land predator on the lands of central and south america
and can be very dangerous once confronted the dogo argentino on the other hand will gladly
take on one if need be and is almost evenly matched with the mountain lions today we'll
analyze how these two animals fare up against one another and what capabilities they possess
so i'll grab some snacks as we dive into the video welcome to animals wild tv let's get started
dr antonio nores martinez who wanted to produce a big game hunting dog meticulously created the dogo
argentino in the cordoba area of argentina in 1928 these big boys from the world of dogs although
bred for hunting can be tamed like this one that little girl sure has it in her ropes doesn't she
these dogs are also bred to be extremely obedient and only show their dark side when needed because
their dark side can turn really really dark like batman cross moon knight cross punisher dark
just take a look at this hulk of a dog the only difference between this guy and the actual
incredible hulk is the fact that this guy's not green he sure does pack the muscles though even
though those chains are just there for the sake of the video and are fake those being real would also
be justified that guy really is giving his all to hold that monstrosity back hogwarts doggy bone
the dogo argentino is a huge powerful dog males typically weigh between 88 and 100 pounds and are
24 to 26 and a half inches tall female dogos are significantly smaller weighing 88 to 95 pounds and
standing 24 to 25 and a half inches tall now like mentioned before these are specially bred for game
hunts what animals in specific do you ask well the ones that are all claws and teeth such as mountain
lions yeah you heard right now let's just take a look at the thing these dogs are going up against
a mountain lion can typically be found in central and south america as they're native to that area
these animals just like the dogs they're up against are not to be underestimated in the
slightest a normal mature male will weigh 110 to 180 pounds and a female will weigh 80 to 130
pounds however sizes vary widely within the cat's geographic range exceptional people have weighed
more than 200 pounds although this is uncommon adult males will stand six to eight feet tall
from snout to tail tip while females will stand five to seven feet tall their arsenal consists
of claws that can grow up to a whopping six and a half to seven centimeters and their teeth oh don't
get me started on those bad boys they can reach lengths of about 3 to 4 inches in simple terms
they can easily reach halfway through your neck watch how this puma demonstrates its strength when
it casually pulls down a quantico from its leg although these animals rarely meet and when they
do it's because of human interference the puma is actually no alien in taking down dogs and is
pretty familiar with the kind how well take a look at what this mountain lion does with a poor wolf
that got on the wrong foot with it without even a proper fight the wolf was taken down by this
mountain lion and that just goes to show how you should never mess with these guys they may look
like miniature lions but they pack almost the same punch however this is where you find out
that the dogo argentino is no average joe look at that dogo argentino make absolute mincemade
of this unfortunate mountain lion that happened to stumble inside the house of its owner the
fight is an absolute tilt towards the dogo's favor as it keeps the puma on its back the whole time
that good boy deserves a nice big treat after this rescue here is another sad reality though
although the dogo argentino fares well against mountain lions the story takes a complete u-turn
when it comes to the cousins of the puma such as this leopard this was a brutal environment
in which both of these animals were set up to fight each other within this tiny and confined
cage and they say that a cornered leopard is always a hundred times more dangerous i think they
were right this time the dogo argentino is working with his pack and he and his buddies literally
dragged down the puma from the top of this small hill it may seem like cheating or unfair but
take a closer look the dogo argentino is actually working alone kudos to its endurance and strength
because look at how it pulled the puma down and never let go once crazy when you think that this
dog can be kept as a timid animal at home oh yes i'll do whatever you want as long as you
keep giving me belly rubs you want me to kill the big cat i'll kill several just keep them coming
if that wasn't convincing enough for you people get a load of this clip this right here is an
actual one-on-one between the two animals although the puma has the upper hand it does so only for a
few minutes as the dogo manages to free itself and get back on its feet also keep in mind that this
dogo argentino was not even fully grown at max it seems to me that this was just an adolescent dogo
this time we have a fully grown and trained dogo argentino matched up against the mountain lion
look at that guy go and make full use of his strength they both look evenly matched
physically but the dogo has the upper hand from the get-go it takes it down almost instantly
and causes a lot of damage those wounds tell me that this poor big cat has had enough for the day
the dogo argentino is the perfect dog for game hunting but it's also perfect for acting as a
guard dog for the family this family we have here can vouch for the statement when it comes to the
family's dogo named marocho as the two girls yoli and sophie climbed up the tree they found
themselves face to face with a mountain lion as they were being chased marocho caught up to
the incident and fought off the mountain lion no doubt saving the lives of these two little girls
he was badly injured but nonetheless did his job good boy facing off that big dangerous cat you
could have gotten your nuts bit off good boy you risked it all these dogs will literally hunt down
anything you train them to hunt and it's not just mountain lions these are mainly used to
track and bring down giant wild hogs as well look at these guys trying to rip apart that wild boar
as it stands they're not even letting it move a single inch and not even backing down themselves
man does that dogo look incredibly proud of the hunt he just did now that is man's best
friend okay so wild animals are like enemies for these guys so what about other dogs yep not much
difference there it seems these dogos as mentioned before are one of the most aggressive and the most
powerful dog breeds out there if there was a berserker version of dogs then this would be it
also again this right here is a pup not a full-grown dogo the dogo argentino surely
takes the cake every time it goes up against all other breeds all in all this dog should
never be messed with as it does not care about who or what it goes up against the power it has
can only be matched by a few but the courage it has can never be matched by anyone so if you're a
thief watching this video be sure to never enter a house with this specific breed of dog in it
because there would be no guarantee of you coming back out alive my not so friendly friend alright
