I am mistaken then, I was thinking the Antelabbit-Tejas Mammut americanum
was the natural predator...I recently had one jump my fence over near the
stock tank and mingle with the herd...could hardly make it out..

You're thinkin of the armordillo.  The Prok is it's natural predator but
because of its armor, it is able to survive the first attack, sometimes.  If
it does, it can bounce away at amazing speed, unlike its distant cousin, the
armadillo.

And the Prok is closely related to the Amadillo...

As I pointed out to a few others who asked, a Prok is the Texan cousin
of
the legendary bird of prey know as a Roc or rukh.  The prok is a little
smaller than the roc and so cannot carry off elephants and consume them,
they only do longhorns as a maximum.

Proks are brought down by the precise application of high speed jacketed
lead from long distances.  You do not want to miss and have the prok
decide
to pick you up as a snack.

I hope that clears it up for you.
