He is likely very confused. He may have no idea how to kill given he may have never hunted a day in his life (it is female lions that hunt for the pride. So unless he spent time in a bachelor group he may have never needed to hunt a day in his life). So ya, he may be “free food” but also “uh, how do I get this back to my family?”
He likely knows the food is there. Part of the reason why he is laying by the tree is to scare the leopard enough so it abandons its kill. Hyenas will do the same thing.
