These threads never fail to be entertaining. And enlightening.
mudhen and mark are right about lions attacking horses. They do indeed. I worked one case in Mayhill, NM but the horse lived, but was scratched up pretty badly. Zero doubt it was a lion.
A few months later I was called to another attack about 7-8 miles from there to work a case where a calf was killed by a lion.
Lions do play hell with sheep ranchers though. They can and will kill many in one night. Especially when teaching their young ones to hunt/kill.
