"Ranking the World's Strongest Animal Bites"

The saltwater crocodile has the strongest known bite force of any living animal, at 16,460 newtons. The orca and great white shark could challenge the crocodile, but their bite forces have not been measured in a live setting. Among extinct animals, T. rex had a bite force of 35,000 newtons, while the megalodon had a bite force of up to 182,200 newtons. Bite force is determined by multiple characteristics, but body size is the most important factor. The Galapagos large ground finch has the most powerful bite force for its body size, with 320 times the biting power of T. rex. Humans have a bite force of around 1,000 newtons.
