Yes. Lions do often hunt large and dangerous animals. They only have a successful hunt around 15% of the time.. Sometimes a failed hunt means a buffalo's horn gored a lion, a zebra made a well-placed kick, a hippo bit a lion, and so on.

Outside of hunting some animals do go after lions. Three hyenas are around the strength of one lion, so if there's enough hyenas, they're more than capable of killing a lion. Buffalo are also known to take sleeping lions by surprise and try to trample any heavy sleepers. Buffalo also (along with many other animals) kill lion cubs.

While lions do not have any predator that wants to eat them, there are plenty of animals that are wiling to kill them.

lions kill pretty much every thing in the Savannah for example zebra,gazell,buffalo and pigs
In Africa, lions hunt animals like wildebeest, warthogs, zebras, buffalo, and various kinds of antelope like impalas, kudu, hartebeest, gemsbok, and eland. Sometimes lions have been known even to kill giraffes. In India, they eat nilgai and wild boar. A lioness has to eat approximately 11lbs of meat a day and the males have to eat about 15.5lbs.
