>>I don't think so. We get loads of nat hist progs (David Attenborough) here covering the big cats of Africa ("Big Cat Diary" et al) and you see the critters chewing away at the gristly ends of the bones but not through them. Cats have very rough tongues for rasping the last vestiges of meat, periostium, etc. from the bones. But I think they leave it to the hyenas to polish off the bones themselves.
