Hah! I guess when you're attacked and it's kill or be killed, you'd have little option. And if you end up alive, then you'd have a nice fresh carcass - why not try it? :D Cougar bites are supposed to be pretty bad, too. As meat-eaters they had rotten flesh on their fangs, so bites became easily infected. Another reason to think they'd make disgusting eating. But not so! Crazy.

The whole romp through the town of Beruna was one of my favorite parts when I was younger. Nasty little boys turning into pigs! Wow!
