There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I highly doubt that, there is nothing that would point to that. There are predation on large prey and predators dating back for as long as humans have recorded it.
Heck, there are claw marks and deaths attributed to Mammoth and Bison from " very large cats ". "Blue Babe" for one

Even Schaller noticed this in the 60s and 70s. The access to wild life has just recently been allowed to the general public and video and photograph have just recently been mobilized and allowed us to shoot this up close and often.
What really dictates Lion predation is availability of prey, that's why most switch prey choices depending on what herds are migrating through their territory. The new climate change that's occurring may be a true deal changer.

That was a joke.
