For the people that I have talked to, the mountain goats around here some how seem to make it to the tallest cliff around before they die, and then flip you off as they go over! I would have to say mountain goat!

RE: Talk about tough
I agree that the fox squirrel, aka "red squirrel" is the toughest, I shot one through the belly, nearly blowing it in half, with my .30-06 once, and it continued to run through the trees for about a hundred yards before finally falling to the ground and whooping my uncle's jack russel terrier.
As far as what I've heard about large game, however, I'd vote either cape buffalo, or a charging kodiak.

Everything I've read or heard and seen with Peter Capstick's African hunting videos, is claimed to be the cape buffalo like everyone else mentioned here.
Also another "animal" on earth that's just as hard to put down is a human coming off of a meth binge or on PCP. Some humans can take multiple rounds and hits even in fatal areas and still be able to kill their opponents within a 30 second time frame before actually dying themselves.
-Just a little trivia there.
