People tend to under estimate cats. They have the killer instinct and absolutely blinding speed. A good sized cat would definitely hold its own against a marten, hard to tell which would win. Someone mentioned that a marten can take down a deer, but a cat isn't deer. It has teeth, fangs, claws and rear feet to rip another animal's guts out, drop the carcass on your porch, then curl up in your lap and go to sleep.
I used to think that cats were the ultimate land predator. Until I read about mustelids. There are stories of wolverines displacing bobcat pairs and even the occasional cougar from kills. I saw a UA-cam video where it took a leopard half an hour to kill an old honey badger. That particular cat could probably take that particular Pine Martin but I think that pound for pound the weasel family is a bit tougher than cats.
Bro their is videos on UA-cam cats chasing marten and the only marten videos that show it killing is a little kitten and it’s the largest marten the yellow one so the cat definitely wins this one no debate
I love how the cat is rubbing up against the feeding table. It's not enough just to scare the Pine Marten away. The cat also has to claim the entire territory for itself as well.
Tenacious savagery armed with a powerful bite and ridiculous stamina vs. Lightning quick assassin armed with four sets of razor sharp claws and a sharp set of teeth.
Wieso sollte ein Igel schäbig sein? Igeln sind lustige kleine Kobolde in der Nacht! Miteinander haben Sie keine Probleme! Funktioniert alles zusammen, oder neben einander- sehr gut! Ich habe Katze und Igel auch! ❤
@@AlfreeMP4 No man! iT's utter truth. Maybe the fox was young, but the cat, a huge female called Mathilda with long hair, was a warrior. I swear, no bullsh**
cats are hilarious. the kitty tries to attack and makes thunderous sounds to warn the marten then curls up alongside the branch like a kitten wanting comfort from his/her owner 😁
My cat just found one of these things today. Needless to say, I ran over and broke up the fight before the poor marten got seriously hurt or our cat incurred a vet bill. He is not going outside for a while. Never would have known what beautiful creatures they are if my cat hadn't tried to kill one.
House cats can kill martens like this one. This particular marten was in the cat's territory and it is clear that the cat did not really want to hunt or kill at the time, but simply wanted to shoo away the intruder. Cats are pretty good at keeping such guests away from your house, especially if you have chickens around.
I had two 15 pound male tabbies that routinely chased off full sized opossums from their food bowl. They were born feral and killed anything that couldn't run away fast enough. The opossums always left quickly. lol
Not too sure about that. Cat would win with an ambush I think, but mustelids are hard to beat face to face. The size of each would be a big factor. Realistically both would probably die from their wounds if neither ran. Felids and mustelids are definitely the two most admirable animal families either way, incredibly skilled, powerful and beautiful creatures
@@ups7739 You completely underestimat cats. Don't be fooled by the tame house cat sleeping on your couch. Cat would grab the pine Martim and shake it to break it's neck, grab it by the throat to choke it to death or bite through it's skull for instant death. Pound for pound cats are the deadliest animals alive. For example, one on one a 150 lb mountain lion would quickly kill a 150 lb wolf.
Martens kill deer, elk, monkeys, fight wild dogs, small bears, and are one of the few hunters that regularly try going after unpredictable and feisty squirrels. Then there's the house cat. Not as fierce a hunter, but more cunning and badass.
@@chamberlandfill depends what cat, some cats are just not build like others. Siberian cat would most likely win because of how thick it’s fur is. Mink would have a really hard time betting through it. If the Siberian Cat is feral than there’s no doubt cat would win, feral cats are some of the most ruthless animals out there.
Wild cats? Thoee cats knows how to fight in order to survive in the wild, i lived near a lot of wild cats and they killed weasels, big rats and other animals to survive
Ronald Ryan yeah she doesn’t know what she’s talking about domestic cats are literally killing off small birds and rodents by the millions every year and a martin wouldn’t stand a chance cats in terms of evolution won the lottery when it comes to being perfect killers. They even kill when they aren’t hungry that’s how hard wired they are
@@AlfreeMP4 I've worked around martens and the place I've worked had a cat there it would always fight with the martens when they would try and take its food and the cat would win
Great video here! Domestic cats will and do kill stoats ferrets juvenile martens, but will not kill adult martens or adult mink. We have a pine Martin that visits our garden no better friend for taking out vermin better than the neighbors cat and there a native animal.
There're cats a lot bigger & meaner than yours. I had a Maine coon come by my house for a few months one winter & then he left. I lived in RURAL eastern Oregon on a giant ranch. That cat was fully capable of keeping himself alive in a place where wolves & mountain lions were very common.

Actually, there is a species (Yellow-throated) that CAN kill the biggest of domestic cats. but a pine marten is no match against a cat
@Atman Gotango if said marten is yellow-throats, the cat will be on the table

Allot of these people don’t have a clue. Martens will never take down a cat. Period.
It’s all fun and games till the marten gets hungry
My neighbor had a large Tom cat easily took out a pine martin right in front of him. Easy kill for cats.
Lies

@@martingrigorov8201 What's with these fanatical Pine Marten, racoon, and wolverine fans? You can't say anything "bad" about "their"animals.

I have a, "roughy toughy tangler" myself. I sure hope he doesn't bite off more than he can chew. I love him so much.

Marten: What?.... You weren't even eating it 😐
That's gotta be a tom cat
cat is just marking its terrirtory
Can i mark territory in you, too?...
@Elijah Hunter lmao
My cats don't even attack hedgehogs when they go for their food. : /
That's because hedgehogs are pokey
Blobbert Mcblob
They are not THAT pokey.
I think martens can kill them quite easily.

Sharing is caring kitty!
If it was a Fisher, that cat wouldn’t have stood a chance.
Good, interesting video! Thank you for posting...
hi
That cat has balls. They usually only go at things much smaller
The cat of my bro fought a fox and won. The fox escaped leaving a trail of blood. astonishing!
stupid fuck

The Marten if fully grown would kill ya cat your very lucky
@Elijah Hunter
Theoretically
Shouldn't go outside at all, if you care about the ecosystem at all.
@@an0rangutan I agree
Who won?
Amazing how many animals fear a Marten but cats take them on.
Lol the Pine Marten's thinking :WTF is this ferocious thing?
I had a cat and a ferret and they loved to play but there were times the cat could have easily killed the ferret when she had him pinned.
Cat thought was another Cat.
Pine Martens are very agile & strong, Cat may have been injured too

You're an idiot tho think that a cat dosen't know exactly what it's pray is.
A normal tom cat can beat any Martin
The bravery of the cat will not be tolerated now give the cat the fish trophy
Who else thought that the thing on the table was the cat at first? XD
No
Somebody with bad eyesight?
Martens do look like cats, so anyone doesn't know what a marten is would've thought the same.
No one
I think a Pine Martin could do some damage to a domestic cat. I think it depends on the size of the cat and it's attitude.
If it was a stray cat then the marten would probably be injured too.
that cat would fillet the pine martin...
true. some house cats are ridiculously wimpy.
Only little species that can kill marten is a little jungle cat
domestic cats kill them all the time.
I recently witnessed my Tom cat 🐈 attack and run off an opossum from his food bowl.
I had two 15 pound male tabbies that routinely chased off full sized opossums from their food bowl. They were born feral and killed anything that couldn't run away fast enough. The opossums always left quickly. lol
Dang. Martens are no joke though.
Were these household pets? Wild Martens and large feral cats would be a tough fight. I wouldn't won't that to occur.
Cat > yellow throated marten, saw it with my own eyes. Same size.
House cat got lucky
Cat would kill that thing
Go cat, damn you marten
good kitty!
That cat was pissed 🤣 😾
Cool video, Thanks!
That cat is crazy
Good Cat!
Who feeds martens at the house ? They are varmints and get hunted even here in Germany!
Good cat
It's all in the attitude...
What are you feeding those martens?
Go Cat
Marten wins if they fight.
A pine martin can be one very tough animal and could have F@$^ that cat in a hurry!
The cat is playing.
Yes, but the marten took it seriously, lol.
First part is comical. Seriously though, I would have thought a marten would demolish a cat any day.
You'd have to be an idiot to think that.
No way people underrate cats big time. Foxes won't fight cats for good reason.
Sirius Leigh you right a cat is no competition for a marten would rip it apart
Damn cat.
That cat would make short work of that Martin if they ever got into it. Pound-for-pound cats are possibly the most deadly nonpoisonous animal alive.
Not too sure about that. Cat would win with an ambush I think, but mustelids are hard to beat face to face. The size of each would be a big factor.

Los gatos son territoriales, atacaran a cualquier otro animalito que pueda dar muerte. 😎💪

That pine marten was holding back but it could have easily attacked the cat I've seen how fast they move the cat wouldnt have had a chance
Cats are mini tigers so would be interesting to see them fight
Yes they are.
Pine Martens are mini honey badgers so I’d keep my cats away

Meso predator battle!!
Is like a large sloth you see the size of the prey of a sloth that cat is so lucky that Martin didn't jump on his back and bite him in the neck.
Dissappointed
If it had been a Fisher...
if it had been a lion...
If it had been a fisher? If it had been a mountain lion... or something even smaller. How about a snow leopard?
Fisher vs jaquar who wins
For fucks sakes these UA-cam geniuses with their infinite "knowledge" on things....
Everything is just the opposite in here xDD
Well! She showed him he wasn't welcome. Did u catch that? The cat is the girl and the Marten is the guy. hehehehehehe jk

La Marta habrá sido joven si hubiera sido experimentado no se habría salvado el gato!!!
I saw a marten on the feeding table, but no cat.
Pinche atake mas vergero
Lol
Wild cats usually leave even smaller weasels alone, since they can't kill them without getting seriously hurt.
I'll call bull on that one my cat used to kill weasels all time and never have a mark her

cats lucky that marten can murder that thing
true
It can go either way, both of them are killers. Cats are not fluffy toys.
NOT TRUE

Night Shade no way, a Big Angry Cat can take care of a Dog too.
Yea until the marten snaps it’s all fun and games
Cats are apex predators, and you're an idiot.
