>>341749 > In ancient Roman times the ancestral Irish wolfhound was said to be the equal of an African lion in the Colosseum. Yes, against human. Now, try an experiment - find a big dog trained to fight against people and engage it in a battle. I would recomend trying to break into a house guarded by Caucasian Shepherd dog. If you survive it, and after some month of hospital treatment, go to Africa and engage a lion in the battle. You'll probably findout that a trained dog can fuck you up no less then a lion could. >And the Rodesian Ridgeback were specifically breed to hunt Lions in the bush. Yes, in the same way spitz (Laikas and the like) were breed and trained to hunt bears. By distracting it, biting its ass, tale and legs and running around a beast, while a hunter is approaching, aiming and striking with his spear. Its not that "breeds were lost", just that noone wants to risk to lose his own personal dog. Back then people had tens of dogs, so losing welltrained dog on its 3rd bear hunt was a sad, but not a heartbreaking experience. Besides, noone in the western world is hardcore enough to approach a lion/bear with but a knife or a spear, thus you cant really test if modern dogs are worse then their medieval relatives.
