There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

It also shows what a wild life does for a predator/omnivore.... I truly believe a captive bear would have little hope of taking on a SPB, only a wild one, with experience taking on horned prey would be able to do so.
I agree. Those grizzlies, before being captured, preyed regularly on feral range cattle. As mention in an earlier post, they likely, in the custom of the grizzly, sought out calves. But in doing so, there would be the inevitable occasional face-off with a cow and, probably more rarely, a bull. Without this prior experiance in killing cattle, the Spanish Bull would certainly have the upper hand.
