What happens when a lonely lion meets a pack of hyenas?

Hyenas live in groups. A group can be as large as dozens or as small as a dozen. The leader of each group is a strong female hyena. The social organization of hyenas is strictly hierarchical. When foraging, the "female leader" can always get the largest and best piece of meat, and this is a matter of course.

Under the premise of living in groups, hyenas have considerable freedom. They often travel alone, hunt alone, and eat by themselves. Members of groups tend not to be together for long periods of time. Once they are reunited, they take it for granted that they behave as members of the collective, reflecting their social gregariousness. When two spotted hyenas of different sexes come together, the male always lets the female go first. If there is only one piece of meat, the male will leave it to the female.
