I think it would be nice if we could "retire" our lionesses when they hit 14 years, since they cannot be bred and it takes time for them to die.
I would prefer an early "retiring" instead of chasing. Sometimes I end up chasing the old lionesses because I feel I'm wasting my food on a lioness that cant be bred and dies unexpectedly.

Retire will be free after 14 years, since they cant breed. Maybe an early retirement could cost some SB, maybe 200sb. Or maybe you can retire whenever free of charge. I dunno.
You can send them to dynasty, that's why I would like a retiring option.

Not a fan myself. If you want her in your Dynasty be patient enough for her to kick the bucket herself. If not, chase her once shes no use.

For me, retiring your male has a true purpose in-game. It lets another take over, improve or lessens stats blah blah.
Retiring lionesses just seems like a impatient way to save a couple food uses and put a pretty lion in a Dynasty

No support from my end :3

I was considering posting a suggestion like this, but more of a "die now" item for lionesses XD Sometimes it's annoying waiting for them to die, but you don't want to chase them either, because you want them stored.

I support!

A 'die now' item xD that's something the snake would "sell", his poisonous bite.

I could see paying to move markings to another lioness but otherwise I see no point in charging to retire a lioness before 14. Never retired a lion before so the dynasty thing is just a blank box right now, might be why I don't think much about it. Like the idea though so will support.

I am on the fence on this.

Support because:
1. While I wouldnt use this, others might.
2. There is no advantage you could gain over others just by retiring a lioness early -unlike with males-.
3. There might be people with big prides and dont have anymore territory slots left for the new generation.

No support because:
1. Just because a lioness cannot breed, doesnt mean she is useless. She can still hunt and be part of the pride. Being able to breed is just one useful aspect of a female, so retiring her for this tiny detail is... well... Plus she hunted through her life, so she does deserve that 'waste' of food which she actually hunts for you still every day.
2. If you have a big pride with no more slots left and old unbreedable lionesses keeping the space, you should consider 'thinning the herd' and altering your tactics instead. This game is all about how you play the game. Hoarding lions and having a large pride is one playstyle and so shall the players deal with the consequences rightfully along with the advantages it brings. Perhaps a too big pride is not the way to go after all...
3. I think there should be penalty for retiring early. Eg. the lioness cannot be put into your Former Pride slots. Say, the lioness' soul is angry at you for making her pass too early, her time wouldnt have come just yet, so she doesnt stay with you.

BUT

Then again, this wouldnt make this feature more different from the chasing, since none show up in the Former Pride page. So perhaps another negative effect would be nice. Like, whole pride loses 50% mood because you 'killed' the lioness, or make it actually cost money.
Eg.: Lionesses older than 14 can be early retired for SB, while younger you would need GB (1 or 2) to do this. In exchange the lioness shows up in the Former Pride page.

Full support from me~.

I thought about this too! I would prefer having some of my girls retire early and join my Dynasty, to not take up too much space. Especially now that chased lionesses can be found by other players, chasing is definitely no option for me anymore. :/
