A lion would not take on a fully grown elephant as an elephant could easily trample them to death. They are able to weigh up risk in order to judge wether a prey is manageable or not. They may however try and get a baby elephant if it got separated from it's family.

Yes, and they frequently do. Due to the differences in size it generally is a matter of numbers. A pack of hyenas will frequently confront a small pride of lions for food and territory.

Who would win in a fight between a hyena and lion?

A lion would win. Since both animals are in the singular form, I assume there is one of each. Though the hyena has a stronger bite, 800 pounds per square inch, the lion is bigger and also more agile than the hyena, as well as using its size and muscle mass as an advantage. The lion regularly takes down big game, so the hyena would not fare very well.

The closest match to hygena is the hyena. The hyena has no predators that eat it. A lion will kill a hyena if it gets in the way, but he won't eat it. Wild dogs will sometimes fight bloody battles with hyenas, but they don't eat them either.
