Note that it is still undetermined but looks convincing something happened.
And here is another link

Here is more text than on the snopes page (I particularly like the comment
about the "dog audience")
Mule vs. Mountain Lion
Yes, the mule killed the mountain lion. The lion had been stalking them for
the better part of the morning, on the way out to a hunt. They were pretty
sure it was after one of the dogs.
The cat ambushed them, and the mule pictured tossed its rider and went into
attack (defense) mode, the horses scattered and shots were fired but no one
was sure if they hit the cat or not.
Unfortunately, the battle was decently long, and it wasn't until it was
almost over that one of the guys started snapping pictures.
The mule finally stomped the cougar to death after biting and throwing it
around like a rag doll.
The dogs wouldn't even come close until the mule settled down.
the cat was still alive here and trying to fight back
the mule stomped the cat then pinned it to the ground and bit the heck out
of the dead cat several more times.
the cat was pretty much dead by now then mule picked up the cat again
whipped it into the air again then stomped the dead cat again for good measure!
note the dog audience....
