Bava Kamma 16 - Shabbat November 18, 5 Kislev

Study Guide Bava Kamma 16 There are four different ways to understand the Mishna and whether it follows Rabbi Tarfon’s position regarding keren (atypical) damages for a tam animal in a private domain (one pays full damages) or the rabbis' position (half damages). Damage by the animal crouching is considered atypical. But is this only for crouching on large items or also on small ones as well? There are different versions of what Rabbi Elazar ruled regarding this issue and whether a braita was brought to prove or raise a difficulty with his opinion. What is a bardelas mentioned in the Mishna? Shmuel differentiated between a lion who clawed another and ate it and one who attacked an animal with its teeth and ate it. The former was considered typical (exempt in the public domain) and the latter atypical (liable in the public domain). Is it really atypical for a lion to attack another animal and eat it? How is this resolved? How is the payment structure different for a shor tam and a shor muad?
