Lions are much bigger, and cheetahs are much faster. Cheetahs are built for the chase, slim and able to turn on a dime, where lions are stalkers , getting close before making a rush.

Do lions eat cheetahs?

Lions do not hunt cheetahs. However, lions will occasionally go after an injured cheetahs as prey, and frequently will eat cheetah cubs that they are able to findI think lions and cheetahs are very much alike and different. So my answer would be maybe because they're both predators in the wild, I believe that they have tried to eat each other at one point though.lions don't eat cheetahsVery seldom does this happen. Big cats tend to avoid attacking other species within the cat family, only doing so if there is conflict over food resources- a cheetah who dared to encroach upon a lion's fresh kill would be chased away and threatened with a mauling, but other than on such occasions they leave each other alone. Also, cheetahs are very much faster than lions, and can outrun them very easily. Neither species is a threat to the other and they tend to tolerate each other, clashing when food is being contested. A lion would only actually feed on a cheetah it it were starving, the cheetah had been aggressive first, and was also unable to run away.Well, cheetahs and lions can fight. In fact, cheetahs kinda fear lions. I wouldn't think that a lion would eat a cheetah, maybe injure it or kill it.
