My parents just saw one next to our house in Creston, MT. I don't know whether it was a Mountain lion or a Panther or a Jaguar but it was a huge black cat. And no, it wasn't a baby housecat either. It was a very BIG boy!

2nd Answerer says: Yes, but Mountain lions may be up to nine feet long, from nose to tail-tip. What your parents MAY have seen was a black Lynx or black Bobcat. This is not unusual. Keep pets and small children close when out-of-doors.

Who will win in a fight between a lioness a lion and a large black bear?

In this scenario, the lioness and the lion are not enemies. This depends on if the black bear attacked the lion first or the lion attacked the black bear first. However, a lioness would not be attacked by the lion, but would get attacked by the black bear. The lion can kill a black bear without much trouble, but if the black bear is large enough, it might have a chance to win the fight with the lion. If the black bear attacked the lion, the black bear would win the fight, but would get badly injured. This leaves the lioness being able to kill the injured black bear with ease.
