Female Lions or Lionesses become sexually mature at around the age of 4 years. Male lions too mature at around the same age but are ousted by the pride leader (the older male lion of the pride). Male lions don't get mate around this age of 4. for nearly 2 years they roam around as bachelors and once they reach an age of around 6, they take over a pride by ousting the resident male. Then they get a chance to mate with the pride lionesses. Male lions have a time frame of around 2-3 years when they are sexually active and head a pride before another healthier lion ousts them.
