Super, I had some mtn lion meat a number of years ago at our local sportsmen's wild game feed. As I recall, it didn't have any gamey taste.

My outfitter on this hunt said that it tasted like pork. When we boned out the meat, the back straps were a light color (like pork), and the rest of the meat was red.

I've eaten two of the bears that I shot and part of another. I would put the flavor of them somewhere between elk and beef. None of them had any marbled in the meat, and the best way that I can explain the texture of the meat was that it had a "waxy" appearance.

I'll know more about lion meat when I finish processing this one and actually eat some.
