There is no strict leader in prides, but the dominance is usually up to males who live in groups of around 3-4 per pride or in separate coalitions of even higher. It's not unusual for females to assume dominance sometimes, particularly in captivity. Any other hierachy is normally reserved for eating - cubs need the least as they can get their mother's milk, but males will step aside in dire times.

The Leader of a Lion Pride Would Be A Male. The Male Will Seek Many Females TO Mate With Then all The Females WOuld Chase Him off As If Any Cubs Are Not His He Would Kill Them. All Females Would Then Cary On Living Together But Only Supplying Food For There Cubs Or Family. In a Group Of Females There Is No Leader. While the females are in there own group the male will Wonder alone until he finds another pride where he can mate

A single lion pride can have one or two male lions. 10 or more female lionesses are known to be a part of the pride. Apart from them there can be numerous cubs and adolescents in a pride. Prides with upto 3 male lions have been seen and recorded but the usual male number in a pride is one or at most two. Lions hunt as a group/pride. 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
