They are doing good for now, but will it last?

 Mhangenis where 12 around the same age, few even older, they where also initially doing great on their own for few months, but eventually they almost all died in less then a year, except 3 who joined prides (they would prob also died if they didnt do so).

So yea, they are doing fine for now, catching and stealing few kills, but can they do that on consistent lvl for half a year - year? Until they got bigger, stronger and more experienced? Without anything happening to them? Like hyenas, other lions, fail hunts, etc.. 

Also, im not sure i know any case where lion (regardless if alone or in group) of just 1.5 yrs of age, managed to survive to adulthood alone.

I mean, as a group of 3, they could in theory survive, but chances are not great, they would need a lot of luck. Reply
