Once the lioness returns to the pride with her cubs, they begin integrating with the other members, often by playing with the other adults and cubs.
All the lionesses work together for the pride, and raising the little ones is no exception. They will suckle each others’ cubs without bias.

When a lioness is about to give birth, she will leave the pride temporarily to find or make a den that will be home for her and her cubs for the next two or so months.
The lioness will usually have between one and four cubs per litter. To keep them safe, she will relocate them often to new dens.

There are key differences between male and female lions, not least the mane. The males are larger; the females have a smaller but compact and muscular build. They are also faster and have greater stamina, all useful features in a hunter and protector.

Lion prides are mostly composed of females, cubs and then a few males. The lionesses are usually lifetime members of the pride, with most of them related to each other; they will only leave if there scarcity of food or territory.

LIONESSES
In any pride, the lioness forms the core of the group. To her falls the majority of the labour and responsibility. From raising cubs, to hunting and protecting the pride’s territory, she is very much how the group survives and thrives.
