Best Answer

It is very possible for a cheetah to kill a lion cub, although there have not been any reports seen by the naked eye of a human being or video evidence of a cheetah killing a lion cub. There has been a report saying that a female cheetah who had fierce intentions of killing 2 young lion cubs, but since the mother was near she just chased the cubs.
