That 85% kill rate I mentioned is the highest, that's true. But it's Africa's wild dog that achieves it, not lions, not cheetahs and not wolves.
Lions get just 17 to 19 %, Tigers and polar bears get just 10%, and wolves, 14%. Feral domestic cats achieve 32%, leopards about 14%, while peregrine falcons record a success rate of 47%.
