You should emphasize the 4-legged more than animal. Also they’re 270-570lb and ~58.8% of their body weight is skeletal muscle, highest percentage of any mammal.
People like to ignore that humans are animals too often. And honestly not great at anything if we don’t have tools. Even persistence hunting requires at least water and a spear.

Just goes to show what an amazing evolutionary advantage we get from the combo of intelligence and dexterity. The ability to make and use tools to fit any situation makes us capable of anything other animals can do and more.
To be fair, they’d have to be running at full speed.
There’s a Olympic record of a 8.95m jump by Mike Powell in '91, so for a much more larger and stronger *4-legged animal it’s not too surprising.

Just a rock or a knife, if you wear the animal down enough. You’re probably not biting through the hide though.
I don’t think I’m running any animal down.
Not with that mindset
I thought about knife too but getting that close is still a good way to get injured or killed. I forgot about rock lol.
