Comments:
The only social member of the cat family, lions live in large groups called "prides," that number from several to 40 individuals, plus one or more adult males. Related females and their young make up the majority of the pride. A single male, or sometimes a small group of two to three males, will join a pride for an indefinite period, usually about three or four years.
Although both males and females defend the pride's territory, the larger males take on most defense duties. Females do almost all of the hunting. They are also territorial, males roar and use scent markings to establish their domain.
All of the females are related: sisters, mothers, aunts, and cousins. Born into a pride, a female will stay in it for life, although a large pride may split into smaller ones. Pride females care for cubs together, hunt and eat together, and aggressively defend their hunting grounds and water holes from other prides.
