Well, in the video the main reason pride was persistent to keep their kill was the males. Buffaloes tried several times, but none of the three males leave it's ground while females were stepped out again and again.
Obviously, male confidence is much needed element for the pride stability and for its thriving.
In fact one scene from last year video ( maybe September 2021) came to my mind where DM Avoca along with talamatis girls and his subadult sons were having a meal . Suddenly they sense some male ( S8 imbali) nearby.
They were 1 adult male, 3 subadults boys, and several adult lionesses strong and S8 imbali was all alone. But DM Avoca leaves the ground and ran away. For a few seconds seconds rest were still and then follow the DM Avoca.
8:48 of the video.

DM's leg injury seemed to have stripped him of much of his confidence for quite some time. That is why many found it wonderful when he had begun regaining a lot of his condition, and with it a lot of his confidence, in recent months. being semi-nomadic for a period really seemed to help DM with his conditioning and his confidence. It is possible that he even attacked S8/Imbali not too long ago, along with his sons, to the point that one of the guides had made a post proclaiming he did not believe S8 was going to survive the night (which thankfully ended up not being the case).
