“turkish” is synonymous with “fail”

Everything these people do turns to crap. They can’t even run a zoo.

Look at Egypt now. For years it’s been “British have our stuff! Give it!”. Now “their stuff” is being looted AGAIN, while the heritage in Britain is as safe as it’s been for 150 years.

> Always wondered which would win a tiger/lion battle.
There was an animal planet show about this very subject 2 or 3 years back.
Result: Tiger beats Lion; Jaguar beats Tiger. Nothing beats Jaguar; it is the strongest and largest of all the big cats.

I'm seeing in other reports that it wasn't a fight. The tiger was able to reach its paw through a gap in the fence to slash the lion.

A jaguar is bigger and stronger than a tiger? Don’t think so.

Some tigers grow to 600 pounds.

Don't bring a lion to a tiger fight

Or something like that, I don't know...

tiger severed the lion's jugular vein in a single stroke using his 9 iron

Wow, I knew that Tiger was pissed because his wife caught him screwing around, but killing a lion...
