For an act of meat consumption to be cannibalism as per usual definitions, both the eater and the eaten has to be of the same species of animal. Human is one species, lion is a another species and pig yet another. A pig eating a pig would be cannibalism. A human eating a human would be cannibalism. A lion eating a lion would be cannibalism.
A lion eating a pig is not necessarily a cannibal, just a lion eating a pig
