1) Hyena Attack: you may need about 14 of them assuming DM was alone. If he was with the Talamatis, you need a really greater number because Talamatis will back him up, which seems unlikely.
2) Lion Attack: you only need another male lion if DM was alone. If he was with the Talamatis, they may have left DM alone, which seems more likely to me because I don't see the Talamatis close to him, or, one of the oldest Talamatis would have helped me to chase off the other lion.

2 Talamati females where close to him on that carcass, in fact, he took it from them and chased them off. 

Maybe when he was overtaking the kill from 2 Talamati girls, girls fight back and bite him (prob what happened). Reply
