Lions live in prides. The pride is headed by one or two male lions with many female lions and cubs. The male lions role is predominantly to mate with the lionesses and protect the pride. The female lions do bulk of the hunting for the pride. However in case of large prey like a water buffalo or a giraffe, the males too take part in the effort to bring down the prey
Lions are ambush hunters. They hunt as a group. They stay low and hidden and go near an unsuspecting prey like a Gazelle or a Zebra and then once sufficiently close, they sprint and take down the prey. All animals of the pride take part in the hunt.
Pride lionesses do most of the hunting for the pride. But males can hunt, and nomadic males must be able to or starve to death. In many cases, as when hunting large prey like buffalo, the larger, stronger males must assist to bring the buffalo down.
The sentence "a pride of lions are hunting" is grammatically incorrect because "a pride" is a singular noun. The correct form should be "a pride of lions is hunting," using "is" to match the singular subject.

The technical term is 'pride'. The head of the pride is the 'alpha male' - but most of the hunting is done by females.
yes, plural lionesses tho.
Mainly the adult females, but the males will participate on occasion.
In a lion pride, lionesses are typically related, often being sisters, mothers, or daughters. This close kinship helps strengthen social bonds and enhances cooperation in hunting and raising cubs. However, lionesses can also join or be incorporated into a pride from other groups, leading to some diversity in their relationships. Overall, while many lionesses in a pride are related, not all must be.
A group of lions is called a pride. A pride typically consists of a few adult males, related females, and their offspring, with the females doing most of the hunting.
Male lions typically are responsible for defending the pride's territory, protecting the pride from outside threats, and mating with the lionesses to ensure the survival of the pride. They are also involved in hunting larger prey animals for the pride.
