She becomes a goddess of beauty with the colors of the rainbow. “When a woman is pregnant she becomes a lioness with the will of a dragon. She epitomizes the goddess and divine feminine energy and has been revered since ancient times as a symbol of fertility, pregnancy, and birth. Each lioness has a role in the hunt and their special position that was honed in through years of training and hunting.Īlso, lion kings have a darker, heavier mane which doesn’t help them blend in with their surroundings (important when hunting) and make them overheat faster. There’s also more of them in pride and they hunt cooperatively. Lionesses are more agile and better built for hunting. The male lion is the king and gets to lie around in the bushes for days on end. Lionesses hunt because that’s the social structure of the pride. Why do female lions hunt instead of males? Females will hunt together so they put their prey at a disadvantage. They also vastly outnumber lions in a pride. This is because they are around a foot smaller in size and around 100-200 pounds lighter. Lionesses are around 30% faster than male lions. What makes lionesses better hunters than lions? They tend to roar in a very characteristic manner starting with a few deep, long roars that subside into a series of shorter ones. Lions most often roar at night, and the sound of a roar can be heard from a distance of 5 miles or 8 km. Roaring is used to advertise its presence. Most lion vocalizations are variations of growling, snarling, meowing, and roaring but also purring, puffing, bleating, and humming. Can a lioness roar?īoth lions and lionesses can roar. In the wild, groups of lionesses do attack lions, typically in defense of their cubs or territory and there have been instances such as this one in an Indianapolis Zoo, where a lioness killed a lion after living together for eight years. They hunt in packs like wolves and are any wild animal’s worst nightmare. They are big and heavy but at the same time agile. Are female lions dominant?įemale lions dominate almost all other animals except their male counterparts. ![]() Male lions are known to kill female ones when, for instance, a female lion rejects a call for mating. In the wild, male lions “totally dominate” lionesses. In a one-on-one fight, an adult and healthy male lion will defeat a female lion. The male lion is bigger and heavier and more powerful than a lioness. It is simply nature for them and a fact of life.Īpart from that, lionesses are great, caring mothers and the glue that keeps the pride thriving and together. The tragic part is that female lions will let it happen. If a new lion beats the previous lion king, he will kill all the small cubs so that lionesses will be able to breed with him. Only the current male lion’s cubs are allowed to be in the pride. The second responsibility is to raise their cubs. They provide food for the male lion and cubs. Lionesses are the main hunters in the group of lions (pride). Lisa Bevere, Lioness Arising What is the job of a lioness?

By mid afternoon, the sun was blazing hot and most of the animals had retired to some shady spot or other. Having entered the Pilanesberg wildlife reserve early in the morning, we lazily wandered all around, spotting a rhino here and a giraffe there. It all started with this particular experience which I am about to narrate. I do not know if it has anything to do with her being born a Leo but she has crazy luck when it comes to meeting Lions (not calling myself one!! I mean real ones) My wife, a pleasant Lioness (after her morning cup of tea!), never failed to attract Lionesses coming out to meet her in any preserve. Trips to Pilanesberg were as frequent as going to the mall. My wife and I were so hooked on 'the wild' that practically every Saturday/ Sunday during the winter of 2014, we were in some wildlife reserve. Merely 5 feet away, a real lioness eye to eye with our lioness (my wife!) Do not believe me? Read on to see how this happened.
