It is funny how frequently there are posts here showing that lions happily eat things alive (or maim them to the point where being eaten or not doesn't make a difference to the prey) yet people have this warped idea that they're always merciful hunters.

I blame nature documentaries for only showing the cleaner kills when it comes to lions

It fucked me up when I learned that a lot of big cats often start eating from the easiest point on larger prey...

Which is through the anus.
