Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Great pics. I am shocked that the lion did not smash the porky as it is so easy for them to kill. It is not uncommon for lions to have quills in and around their mouths. I have also found several porkys that were killed by lions. It seems that they get the prey on their back and shuck the meat off the hide. Somehow, they get less quills than you think.
Adios,
Gary

Adios,
Gary Yes sir. Porkies are a desired food source of Mt. Lions. I use them for trap bait, and it works. In two minutes anything could wander off, but I did notice one of the porkies is missing. Cool pics.

Hes the only one around there that wants to eat those stinky Aoudad and sheep. We have a herd of Red Sheep, several herds of Aoudad and some Catalinas.

You can tell if a mountain if left or right handed. Just find the porcupine quill in his paw as he flips them over for dinner.
