Which animal has the strongest bite force⁉️⁉️⁉️
Do you think that the largest animal in the world with a cavernous mouth has the most powerful bite force. Fortunately blue whales don't have teeth instead they have baleen plates to trap a shoal of krill (a tiny crustacean). Most powerful bite ever recorded from a living animal is from the salt water crocodile. They have a mind boggling crushing force of 16414N (Newton is the SI unit of force). Now who has the most powerful bite force among land animals? Lions? Tigers? Leopards? No it is hyena, the master scavenger, who even dares to snatch food from a pride of lions. Hyenas have the most powerful jaw bones which can deliver a crushing force of 4689N. Sure, he is not the one to mess up with.
