The article "Cooperative Hunting in Lions: Role of the Individual $($ Behavioural Ecology and Sociology $)"(1992)$ ?discusses the different roles that lionesses play during a hunt. Lionesses in a pride work together in a highly coordinated manner to bring down their prey. Each lioness has a specific role to play, which can vary depending on the specific circumstances of the hunt. Some lionesses act as 'chasers', driving the prey towards the rest of the pride. Others act as 'ambushers', hiding and waiting to pounce on the prey as it is driven towards them. The success of the hunt depends on the coordinated efforts of all the lionesses in the pride.
