Absolutely Lions are smaller there but even so without knowing the age of the Male shown just based off the single camera trap shot the Male lion looks almost 3 to 4 times the weight of the leopard and 1.5 to 2 times the height and length. If you photoshopped that leopard in front of the lion you'd see the differences much clearer. You also have to remember when looking at camera trap shots they dont relay girth and when comparing a leopard to a lion in body girth it's a completely different ball game.
Again the last Lioness looks young but that leopard definitely looks tall too, very lean though which could help it look taller than it is.
Can you provide the link to these camera trap photos?
Thanks
