Who would win in an ultimate free for all?

A bear/gorilla for its strength?
Elephant for its size?
Lion for it's awesomeness?

No human with weapons allowed..

I would have to say elephant too because of its size, and they can be pretty fierce.

But they're not very mobile, compared to a bear or gorilla..they can just sneak behind the elephant and hit it from behind.

Well, elephants can be pretty mobile, have you ever seen videos of bull elephants going at it? It's pretty scary. And even if a bear or gorilla were able to get behind it, what would they do?

The lion can gnaw off at it's legs.

"The Savannah (African) elephant can range from 6?7.3 m (20?24 ft) long and 3?4 m (10?13 ft) high. At up to 10,000 kg (22,000 lb) it is the largest land animal in the world." - From wikipedia

I dont think a bear of gorilla would even try coming near it.

Ha, I was looking at how heavy elephants are too and found this:

Most elephants don't get that large, but African elephants grow larger than Asian elephants.

Found that really funny for some reason :laugh:

I think if you pitted one of those 10+ft tall giant grizzlies against it, it may be an interesting fight.

Grizzlies only get to those heights standing up, and while they're standing they can be quite vulnerable. Grizzlies can't move that fast while standing, and a quick tusk to the underside could end it.

Elephant would trample anything that comes near it. Or gore it. Or both.

I don't think there is an animal or pack of animals on the planet that could take on a herd of elephants.

Yea, but as long as the grizzly used it's mobility to stay away from the tusks, I think it could last for at least a few minutes before the elephant finally took it down.
