Lionesses do most of the hunting for their pride. They are more effective hunters as they are smaller, swifter and more agile than the males, and unencumbered by the heavy and conspicuous mane, which causes overheating during exertion.

They act as a coordinated group with members who perform the same role consistently in order to stalk and bring down the buffalo successfully.

Members of the pride regularly tend to play the same role in hunts and hone their skills.
