Awesome African Lions

The only cat species that live in groups is the African Lion. These groups are called prides. Prides can have up to three males and plenty of females.

The females do almost all of the hunting yet the males eat first. They often team up to hunt wildebeest, zebras, antelopes and other such grassland animals. Most of these creatures are faster so teamwork is vital.

Their top speed is 50.3 km per hour.

 Only the males bare impressive manes so it’s pretty easy to tell who is what gender.

Males defend their grassland territory, while females are off chasing dinner.

Sadly, African Lions are endangered and only a few still live in the wild. People also keep them as pets and when they are too big they give them to an organisation malnourished and in desperate need of help.

Thanks, bye!
