    Of pigs and mountain lions....

    The wild hog threads over the past few days got me to thinking. I wonder in places where their ranges overlap if mountain lions can successfully prey on wild hogs? Not the little ones but say the average 200 #er. I'm thinking not. How about bears? Inquiring minds want to know. S-
