Male lions are slackers as far as hunting goes. They don’t have the speed of the females, they’re more easily spied by prey (big manes), and they tend to overheat in high temps.
They are useful though. I saw one show where a pack of hyenas had treed several female lions. Here comes the male. He killed the leading hyena and the rest ran away.
Interesting fact – in hyena packs it is the females who are bigger and the pack leaders.
Frazz is the adult in this instance. Actually he is an adult, just not as hide-bound as some…
