Best Answer

The average bite pressure is in the range of 2840 to 4270 psi. .

Therefore, while the bite force itself averaged 117 to 265 lbs, the pressure

remained constant at about 5600 psi…certainly enough to puncture light weight

sheetmetal.

How strong are the wolf's jaws?

A hyena is one of the animals in the African savanna that have extremely powerful jaws. As scavengers, they have to live on scraps of meat and the carcasses of animals that were already fed on by other predators, which may include lions, leopards, et al. As such, by the time hyenas get to the remains, there is very little meat in their food. As a result, hyenas have developed extremely strong jaws that can break or crush bones, and a digestive system digest the marrow within the bones.
