"Use" as a verb means "to put into service," "to make use of." ...I USE a grill for steaks, what do you USE in your compound butter? When "did" is added to the verb phrase, USE is correct. I think there could be some confusion about your question; if you'd written "Is the usage of 'use to' correct?" it would have been more clear. Think of, "he USED to borrow my car." But when "did" is added to the verb phrase, the word should be USE. "He DID not USE to borrow my car." Does this help?

If you are asking what the lion hunted in the past, as in, what his prey was, then you would say "used to."
What did the lion used to hunt?
But even that is a little awkard.
The lion used to hunt what kind of prey?
I think that sounds better.

I think you mean "used." "Use" would imply that the lion used some kind of weapon or possibly his own stealth. By using "used," you are suggesting the lion is now hunting something other than before.

Are you asking if you used the word "use" correctly in the first question? (Your question really isn't very clear- I'm guessing here at what you are asking.)
If what you are trying to ask is what the lion hunted with, yes, you used the word "use" correctly.
