They can only be retired from 14+ years old, and if they're not on a nursing cooldown (the 5 days after giving birth).

First un-secure the lioness and remove any role she has assigned, then click the 'retire' button that appears on her page just below her image :)

You won't be able to retire her if she's nursing (or even if she's still on the cooldown but all cubs are already deleted/aged). It won't let you, even if you click the button, so there's no risk of losing cubs that way ;)

First, ensure the lioness is 14 or older. You'll want to ensure she is not nursing any cubs prior to retiring her, or you will lose them.

Remove her as a hunter or broodmother if applicable, and unsecure her. Save your changes. The page should automatically refresh and bring you back to the lioness's page. You'll see the option to retire near the top of her page for 10sb. Click it.
