The male lion then killed the cubs so the female lions would go in to heat. Nature is majestic.
Male: “I killed your son”
Female: “That’s so fucking hot”
I once watched a youtube video where a guy with a super hot tinder profile would chat with random girls and he could say whatever vile shit and they would all be like: aww, but you’re so hot tho.
I murdered your child.
So wanna hang out some time?
I ate him.
Raaawr ;)

New evidence suggests that the old ‘male lions just eat what the females provide’ trope is inocrrect.

This doesn’t answer the primary concern though. Do male lions have the same hunt participation rate after being in a pride? All this paper talks about is strategy. Everyone knows male lions hunt, they have to before they get a pride. But what about after? Do they hunt at the same rate? Or just stop altogether?
