Do lions have predators and what are they?

Lions do not have predators that will eat them for food. Lions are apex predators, meaning that they have no predators at all but rather prey on other species.Humans do kill lions, but only for pelts, money, or trophies. Occasionally, a pack of hyenas will team up on a lion(ess), but they will not kill it. Hyenas and leopards will attack lion cubs. When a male lion joins a pride, he will kill any cubs in the pride but will produce some of his own. Lions do attack each other and sometimes kill, but they will leave the carcass. So basically, lions have no predators that will eat them, but they do have experiences and attacks from other species (or other lions) within their life.Thus Lions have no natural predators but may be killed by humans, diseases, and other lions.yes, hynas and crocodilesMan?Umm...
