If the lions go for the kill and are very motivated then 2v1 is too much for any lion, but thing is, rarely the attackers are that motivated.

Also in 2v1 I think it's difficult to break the spine, generally they need more numbers to do it, lions killed or badly injured in 2v1, generally die from overall injuries ( 5th Majingis ) or starve from a destroyed leg ( Nhenha ).

Something like that I guess… Reply
