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 find
I 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 cheetahs
Very 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.

Why don't lions eat cheetahs?

Lions typically do not eat cheetahs because they are not a primary prey species for them. Cheetahs are smaller and faster, making them less of a target compared to larger herbivores that lions prefer, such as wildebeests or zebras. Additionally, lions and cheetahs often occupy overlapping territories, leading to competition rather than predation. Furthermore, the social structure of lions often means they focus on hunting larger animals that provide more sustenance for their pride.
