Lions don't like hunting gazelles, because they smell. The sweat glands on the gazelle secrete a strange and unpleasant oil, which will cover the whole body and make other animals sick when they smell it.

Lions rarely approach and prey on water gazelles, mainly for this reason, because their body odor is unbearable and their whole body stinks. If it is not true that there is no prey to eat, the lion thinks that eating carrion is much more fragrant than eating gazelle.

However, staring at the antelope itself does not think it stinks. When they smell it, the more smelly it is, the more attractive it is to the opposite sex, which is a very attractive performance. However, to outsiders, they simply stink.

Lions are not only the biggest prey, but also the most picky eaters.

According to an expert survey, there are basically less than 20 kinds of prey on the menu of lions in various places, and some areas are still single digits. In contrast, Tiger nagar Lei Huo has 490 kinds of food on his menu, while Wang Chi has 220 kinds of food. In jaguar's diet, there are more than 100 kinds of prey everywhere.

Lions almost only eat ungulates. In most areas, ungulates account for more than 98% of the lion's food. Although lions sometimes kill other carnivores, including their own kind, leopards, hyenas or crocodiles, they almost never eat them. In Kruger, experts counted1.20,000 lion hunts, and found that the proportion of carnivores was only 0.4%, and reptiles were almost zero.
