Leopards kill any dog mate and eat it tho a did see some hunted wi hounds treed and shot and same wi lions but reckon if the dogs ran in to tackle they be pretty much fecked Quote Link to post
Bobtheferret 1,248 Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 In America they hunt mountain lions with dogs all the time, use the dogs to track the lion and then tree it so it can be shot. They use a pack of dogs though not just one and dogs don’t actively engage with the lion. 1 Quote Link to post
