About #594: I remember this documentary, a very good one ! A young leopard and a young lioness bred and then released together in wild. At first they are friend, the leopard learnt faster the "wild rules" in the savannah, the lioness uses her bigger strength for eating first and so on. And finally they become stranger each other.

weird thing is the resident pride accepting that adolescent lioness suddenly!

It has been here in some place, but it´s not dangerous if sometimes something is twice :) Better to have more information than less. Sometimes when discussion starts in one place and continues in other(s) it is difficult to notice all. 

This puzzle concerning for instance dhole reputation is quite big after all :) One thing always interesting are dhole pack sizes, when looking at interaction with other predators, small groups like in denser forest of course give up easier than bigger packs.

One of my big arguments with pack size, the habitat. Yes, they've overcome the problem of being separated with whistling, but let's face it, packs of social animals are smaller in forests since those habitats are better for ambush hunting. Hence, why India seems to have the biggest packs as there seems to be more open spaces in India.

Yeah, that study was interesting. It was maybe only where was studied predator interaction in place, where quite limited number of prey animals. If I remember right, dhole pack sizes are quite small in Thailand where that study was done, so I didn´t see it so interesting what comes to other discussion about dhole reputation in dhole thread. On the other hand of course interesting information in overall situation and how dholes are doing in different regions and countries. And of course about tigers and leopards there. It would be nice to see whole original study, in researchgate was only some summary.

Here's another study done a long time ago, basically saying that Dholes are more aggressive towards leopards than tigers due to them being smaller and less powerful than tigers.

I noticed one old but interesting article. Quite old, but there is mentioned, that maybe some footage might be too. Would someone have more information about this case mentioned in following articles?

It is a case in Ethiopia from 1999 where is said, that a pride of lions and hyena clan had a period of fights leaving 6 lions and 30-35 hyenas dead.

I had also some distant memory. That footage from Ethiopian news might be impossible to find though. On the other hand it might be difficult to see too much even if that would be found when reading that article. Those animals have for sure raised quite thick dust cloud.

Btw, if you want to see lions in Ethiopia, then you should love this one, I think :)
