You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Also, if we're going with the 'pound for pound' idea to the extreme - how about a Preying Mantis - these guys are carnivores and really amazing predators.

They are highly intelligent. Their eyesight is comparable to humans. Their sense of smell is better than a dog's! In essence, if you are another animal, a Kodiak Bear will find you and kill you.
To quote Stephen Colbert: "They are remorseless killing machines."

M$Overall strength of an animal is largely based on its mass, or weight. That's why a hippo is so dangerous. But when you say pound for pound, then the strength is based on its metabolism. A tiny predator has to have a fast metabolism, and that means it has more energy and thus strength by weight.

M$Just give me a few months to pork up to that weight and I'll be good to go.

...the Mantis' head spins 360 degrees, that's a crazy predator.
I like the praying mantis thought, a 400 lb version would be quite dangerous.
Bring it on...
