Bears are too large for cougars (mountain lions), but a mother cougar may take on a bear if her young are in danger.

Lions can't kill bears because they are never in contact. There are no places where both lions and bears live together in the wild.

In the wild, lions and bears do not live together. They consider each other to be a threat not only to their young but to the amount of food in an area. Animals tolerate one another but if boundaries are crossed then there will be a fight. The rule - survival of the fittest - applies here.

No. As neither pair is not found on the same continent, it would be impossible. Lions are only found in Africa, tigers only in small parts of Asia, and bears are found only in the northern hemisphere in higher altitudes and forests.

However, for arguments sake eg: is it possible for a lion or a tiger to eat a bear? The answer would be yes, if they were to be in the same enclosure in a zoo or someone fed a bear to a lion or tiger. It would not come without a fight on the bear's part. As all three are predatory animals, it would be highly likely that quite some damage would be done to either/or all of the three due to their sheer size, the compression weight of their teeth and jaws, and also their formidable claws.

No. Bears and Lions live in two totally different habitats and the possibility of them meeting face to face itself is not practically possible.

Yes. If the lion kills the black bear it will eat it if necessary.

No. This is because they live on different parts of the planet and never meet.
