Brave Young Lioness Survives Fight with Two Larger Male Lions


YouTube comments: The female was either away from her pride family which is unusual, or the males had intruded into her prides territory.

The smaller lioness fought well, trembling at one point and then submitted to the powerful foes. Having survived the fight, she earned their respect and may be a potential mate for them.


Young adult male lions must leave their pride in order to make their way and find mates outside the original family. This ensures healthy offspring.
