When do lions breed?

Lions don't have a mating season as such. They breed all year round. Whenever a female lioness in the pride comes into heat, the male lion mates with her and impregnates her with his genes. Lionesses mate only once in 2 years or so. Only after her litter of cubs are old enough to fend for themselves would a lioness come to heat again.


What do female lions do?

1. A lions roar can be heard from 5 miles away the loudest of any cat. 2.Lions have subspecies which include the Barbary Lion that has a more black and distinct mane. 3.Male lions can range anywhere from 400-700 lbs although some lions have been found to reach 900 lbs. 4.Lions are the second largest cat behind the Tiger. 5.Lions live on the plains of Africa and are carnivorous social hunters. 6.Lions live in prides which is a family unit in which they survive. 7.Male lions are the defensive unit of the pride whereas female lions are the hunters or in this case the huntresses. Although male lions have been known to involve themselves occasionally in hunts. 8.Male lions will ban smaller male lions who have reached sexually maturity in the pride. These lions then enter an area between prides known as nomad land where they become nomadic lions in search of their own pride. 9. Average life span of a male lion is half that of a female because of the competitiveness for their pride. Male lions average 8 years, which is said to be their endpoint of youth whereas female lions average 16 years. 10. Females are known to be in one pride for over many generations whereas males are on a come and go basis. Nomadic lions that take over another male lion's pride will kill the young and start producing young of their own simply because it is a unit of survival to spread their own genes. 11. An interesting fact is that before a male lion invades another pride's territory they will sometimes eat and roll around in hippo's feces. This is done because of the testosterone in the feces prepares them for a fight and they get a sense of invincibility. 12. Lions are also known to be scavengers. In fact against normal beliefs of hyenas being the scavengers lions do this more often.it hunts in packs so there is more chance of them to catch its prey.It can weigh up to250 kilos.its hind legs are really powerful so it can run really fast to catch its prey faster.the lions roar can tell other male lions to stay away because it has its cubs and lioness with him.the lion has really good eyesight so it can hunt at night to.Only male lions have a mane,the male defend the pride n female are in charge of hunting.a pride may cover up to 260 sq km as territory..a lion has a claw at the back of its leg,which it sometimes use to pick leftovers from its teeth!These are a few facts of lions. They are the king of the jungle.The lioness does all the hard work of hunting. The lion isa lazy animal.The lion is the only animal to ha ve a good Maine .In a circius it is the lioness that does the tricks, as the male lion is far to lazy to learn.A lion's roars can be heard 15 miles away from him.
