There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

maybe the male(s) have had their fill
Agree ! If these females had been with an adult male, the hyenas would never dare to assault them.
Main tasks of the male lions : after the territory defense, the preys defense. As concerns this last one, without them it isn't more at all the same outcome.
