I know @Pckts does not agree with me on sexing buffalos and we have had that discussion before, but on adult spicimens I do know how to sex them without looking at genitalia or size. 

 



At the end of the day, it does NOT have testicles. That is proof beyond a shadow of a doubt, and if it does, they have clearly not dropped meaning it is a juvenile.
I will go with Packers reasoning since he is involved in the longest running lion study in history, spanning over 40 years. That is clearly enough data to provide ample time to get at least one viewing of the predation in question.
@Pantherinae, you know I know that attempts have been made and probably there has been at least 1 successful hunt. But........ there is still no data or proof of it ever occurring, and you must agree with that. Since you guys have looked through all stories possible to try and prove me wrong and you know I have looked as well.
