I disagree. Just because one of them gets more camera time( and it puzzles me that it's #2, because he's the uninteresting one of the coalition), doesn't mean the others don't get action time with the girls.

Now, I haven't seen any video where #4 or #2 actively displace the others of mating opportunities. One thing is "defending" the female they're already mating with by growling at his brothers. 

But that doesn't show they're higher up in the hierarchy, it's just a simple "zog off, go find your own lioness".

Now, as the Kambulas/Ntsevu lionesses start to get pregnant and give birth, then yeah I assume there will be more quarry over those ladies, and we0ll get a chance to see how the hierarchy works out between them. Reply
