Would a lion eat a brown bear?

Best Answer

A lion is an aggressive, hunting carnivore; a (dead or nearly dead) brown bear is meat, so a lion would certainly eat one. A bear is also an aggresive, hunting carnivore, and the reverse could just as well apply.

Whether a lion could attack and kill a brown bear or sufficiently injure it in order to make it edible, is another matter.

They aren't native to the same continents, so wouldn't meet in the wild. If it so happened that they somehow did, there are so many variables in the situation that it's impossible to say which creature would eventually succeed in eating the other.

Possibly they'd have a fairly equal chance, all other factors being equal for each animal. It's also quite possible neither animal would attempt to hunt and attack the other.

Another Answer

No. A lion lives in a different continent from a brown bear or any type of bears, and they will never meet.
