My boss in the 90s told me a story of a farmer here in Nova Scotia who went into his pig pen one morning to find his brood sow badly scratched up and a bloody mess about the face and neck. Then he found the bobcat carcass. Apparently, the bobcat had planned on a piglet meal, but it cost him his life when Momma pig got hold of him. He obviously fought back, but came out worse. Momma Pig healed fine.
