Often they have earned the respect of one another. When a new lion or lioness tries to become part of a pride they would have a fight, possibly to show how strong they are and that they are capable of bringing back the best food. Also if there were two male lion cubs growing together, they would be very well acquainted with one another even as adult lions. This would then mean that they would be joint-leaders of the pride.

∙ 6y agoA pride of lions are usually a family group of related lionesses and cubs. There will be one dominate male, (sometimes two brothers) who protect the pride, drive off intruders, and mate with the lionesses. The dominate male is there because he has been able to fight off any challenges from male lions that wants to take over the pride.

How does a male lion become the alpha male?
A lion will either fight the other alpha male, whoever wins is the alpha and most of the time the other is kicked out. Or will start their own pride In real life there is no kingship in a lion's life. Simply the biggest and strongest male lion becomes the leader of the pride. The leader may come from the outside too if a male lion manages to kill the current leader and in this case he also kills the male cubs.
What is the role of the father of the lion?
The father lion stays home with the cubs, to keep them safe, while the mother lion goes out hunting for food. The father lion keeps the lion cubs warm, by letting them snuggle up to his mane. If other lions try to invade, the father lion will hide his cub and fight back. He growls, and bares his teeth. Then he shows the invaders how sharp his claws are. He attacks them, scratching and biting, until, either, the father lion is too exhausted and gives in, or dies, or the invaders give in and goes to look elsewhere for non-occupied territory. If the father makes it, he goes back to care for his cub until the mother returns. When the mother returns the father allows the cub to eat his share of the meat first, before the father lion gobbles up the left-overs. In a pride, sometimes the father lion will fight with the leader so he can become the new leader. If he wins, the leader will no longer be leader, and will either find a different pride to be in, create his own pride all over agin, or stay in the same pride as a normal lion. But the father lion will become leader. However, if the father lion loses, he will not be leader. Those are the roles of the father lion. Did that answer your question? I hope so! :)
