3. Yes it is. Just because it isn't well known, doesn't mean it isn't the truth. If you claim to know more about Zoology than me, I accept your challenge...
4. My point is that Lions are the scavengers, not Hyeanas.
5. Generally, predators will choose the live prey because the meat is fresher and tastier and the nice bits haven't already been eaten by anything else.
6. Cats are my favourite type of animal. Most of them are superb hunters. Tigers are. Leopards are. Even house cats are. It's just that Lions are total bullies, who wait for someone else to bring down something, then scare them off and eat it themselves. This is no reflection of other cats, just Lions [the gits].

1 I have news for you scavengers do hunt for them selves they can't just wait for someone else to hunt for them they only scavenge because it's easy and is less work for them as I said before everything is a scavenger it would rather get it off someone else then hunt for it it self less work.
2 Hyeanas will eat anything. they don't care if it smells with their sharp teeth they eat bones like that.
3 I don't claim I just like cats. I don't like every animal so I don't learn about them and I don't really care about zoology.
4 As I have said everything is a scavenger and every animal scavengers at one time or another.
5 They just want to eat to survive they don't care if it tastier but don't you say that lionesses are scavengers.
6 Mine too my favorite. All of them are superb hunters and I mean ALL of them. Of course lions hardly hunt its the females that do the hunting but if your as big as a male lion is it can take on anything. Yeah I like lions being total bullies especially towards hyeanas

As I have said the males hardly hunt it's the females the queen of beasts that do the hunting and I give them that title.
