Ooooh I have no idea. But I imagine you would have to define what you mean by "strength" first. Are we talking bite force? Pulling/dragging ability? Straight up muscle mass?

The most intimidatingly muscular animal that I frequently come into contact with is the cape buffalo. Seen death closing in a few too many times with those guys nearby.
