I wouldn’t want to hunt anymore either if I survived the brutality of male lion adolescence

emasculating men via lion cub sexual dimorphism or decatulating male lion cubs via meme men for science is what we call a weird hobby

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?
