Why Male Lions Need Lionesses to Help Them Survive

- They might be earmarked as future kings of the jungle, but young male lions are lazy and lack survival skills. Their only hope is to attract a female to come in and provide for them.

This is true, male lions do need females to survive, but females also need the males to survive. The females hunt and take care of their young, while the male(s) usually guard and imprint their territory.
On an individual level, male lions do NOT need lionesses to survive - they need lionesses to procreate (and vice-versa). Lionesses DO need male lions to survive, otherwise they would just be a much smaller Big Cat competing with the mighty male lion for food. They would lose their kills every time a male lion was near. In fact, male lions would start hunting them to eliminate competition - the same way lions kill leopards and cheetahs when possible. If the lionesses didn't have a pride leader in a male, all the cubs would be constantly killed by male lions in the area.
Tomi Adewole this is factually incorrect. female lions are much more adept at hunting prey than males, do to their lighter size and greater agility. a single male could take down larger prey than a single female, but the chances of him catching anything are much lower than that of a female.
Perplexed Sage Most often young males actually scavenge for food, chasing hyenas off kills and such. Lions actually scavenge more than hyenas, and this plays a large role in that fact. They of course soon learn to better hunt, but there is a reason males risk their lives to join a pride, and that is (not only to sire cubs) but to have a pride of lionesses to hunt for them. Both males and females can survive on their own, but they won’t thrive on their own. Males can’t hunt as well as females, and females need males to protect their offspring.
Lions can't survive without lioness hence when they take over the pride, they only kill Lions in the prides and not the Lioness. Even Lions only chase away their sons out of the pride but not the daughters. They need lioness for a survival.
that's not true females don't actually need male lions
The collar looks uncomfortable
That collar helps them to avoid hunters.
Yet the big cats never notice the collars.

@@jackiejacobs4791 yeah dude. Same here.
I been stuck in the lion wormhole for a week
Good for you!May God Bless!
I love how lions work together, the males protect the pride to the best of their ability and the lionesses provide for the pride to the best of their ability. Sometimes or often vice versa. :)
Ando lionessess are avid hunters
I mean it makes sense. The males are never taught to hunt -- they are driven out of the pride when they come of age. The females stay together and teach the young ones to hunt, from generation to generation. The males simply provide the brute strength to defend the pride from rival males.
Why does it make sense exactly? The males are ousted at a young age and are pretty much expected to survive on their own. They do this for a few years with zero help, unless they form a male coalition of lions. In other words, like you have inferred, they have to figure out how to hunt for themselves. So why do we think they can't hunt or are lazy? When they do form a pride, they are still hunting (not a much) and having to patrol their territory (up to 20 miles) to fend off other animals and males. If any thing, we think that males are useless. So if anything instead of this feminist narrative, we need to learn more about the brutality of life that male lions go through.
@@0doublezero0 two male lions left their only pride for 8 months, never seeing them letting the lionesses raise the cubs. In that 8 months they hunted big animals, having more use for lioness
@Samia Mim Experienced Male lions don't really need lionesses they're tired from patrolling the pride and would usually come back at night which is usually when lionesses hunt.
Yes, well...there are innumerable videos on TH-cam showing male lions killing prey all on their own, or in collaboration with the rest of the pride. There are also videos showing males killing hyenas and other rivals. I think you will find that evolution has allotted fully adequate roles for both sexes.
@@0doublezero0 uhh she is just saying that the males have a hardtime cause they have to live on their own cause they don't know how to hunt,don't have anyone to help,they are stuck inside a group of animals who want to eat him but still the lions face the problems and become the leader and that's why they are so powerful than females
Goodness gracious y’all. We’re arguing over male/female dynamics between lions and making it about humans. NEWS FLASH - humans and lions are VERY different from one another.
Ikr?
Not so much different, parents protect their offspring in all species. Baby Humans need both mom and dad to fully develop, ( psychology talks about all the benefits) no matter how they try to portray single parenting as a new trend we should all hop on. Children need both parents. In lions, a pride where both male and female work together, and both provide their greater strenghs, can be said, is similar to human partnerships with both man and woman in a home: both provide their strenghs too, when its a healthy relationship ofcourse.
They both need eachother to survive okay? End of the conversation.
Sexy Love thank you! Well said.
well...lionesses need male lions because if theire alone and they have cubs then they are in bigger danger, usually male lions are protecting lionesses , but if male lion fails to protect his lionesses then their cubs are killed by another males . soo ....male lions protection insnt for sure
R/woooosh
@@HK-gm8pe strongest of the fittest yeah not all of them survive
women do everything lol
Its honestly amazing how these animals live and survive and co depend on each other for survival. Watching females hunt is the most beautiful thing ever, just how they coordinate their attacks and how to bring down prey, each female has its own position when hunting, its truly amazing to see.
Why is there a warning at the beginning? I didn't see anything weird.
Aurora Fenzl maybe the hunting scene
Aurora Fenzl May be some bloody scenes in the complete footage , the link of which is under the video.
didn't say weird, said disturbing. And a lot of people find watching a living thing die a painful death disturbing, blood or no blood.
It's the hunting scene. Whenever there is a hunting scene like that, people start commenting "Why didn't the cameraman try to save it?" "How could they just sit there and watch" "I'm crying now. That was horrible." And so on.
Usually this channel takes clips from documentary movies, maybe the warning was for the whole film.
Male lions have the toughest life on earth. If they have not been killed as a cub they will get expelled when they can still barely hunt. They will eventually have to kill or be killed to get a pride, then at an old age they will either die fighting other male lions or get expelled from the pride and die as an aged lion, malnourished, and alone. We only see the peak moments of a male lion's life. Some may hate them but their life story are tougher than of the lioness
but the real question is, who actually cares?
life is so weird like that. A big powerful predator to have such a rough life like that. also weird how the cutest animals are the most cruel and Savage

Incorrect. You clearly do not know how a male lions life works and goes.
Hyena males have tough loves as well.
Wolf SKULL, that's not white knighting, he's just being a dick. white knighting is when you defend the unpopular position
I'm a month late but I'm going to clear this up: I haven't seen the entire documentary, but I will tell you all this much. Lions were hunted to extinction in Rwanda, as the narrator obviously states, many years ago. Rwanda has gone through quite a lot of strife in the past. Now, to all of the lions in this pride, this is completely foreign territory. These males are likely about 3-4 years old based on mane length and darkness, meaning they're still rather young to be taking over a pride as just a pair. Male lions don't typically claim a pride until about five years of age, even if in a pair or coalition. By then, their manes are usually much longer and darker.
Younger males tend to form larger coalitions if they can. Over the years, incidences with other males, rival predators, prey, and humans determine how many are left before they claim a pride. The very largest coalitions are only made up of five or six male lions, two or a single male is the norm by the age of six and certainly by the time the male grows old at about fifteen years.
I think the implication with these two males is that they're young and in unknown territory. Males are capable of hunting but these two are at an age where it's rather crucial to find females. Since they're not in a larger coalition with the strength of numbers or older, stronger males to help them, they can't possibly hope to hunt buffalo or other larger, slower prey. But since they're at the same time growing larger and slower than the females, and their manes are starting to darken, they cannot sneak up on or catch the smaller antelope they'd prefer. They can make an attempt, but male lions without females to help suffer more failed hunts because of the differences in their anatomy.
The point is that, this reintroduction project hinges on the females providing for these males as they do in functioning populations. These males are only going to get bigger and stand out more, and at that point the females will be pivotal to their survival. Furthermore, and keeping in mind I'm not entirely aware of Rwanda's ecological strife, these males may not be able to rely on carrion. There's likely not much to find, or they don't have a chance of driving other scavengers away.
Thanks for clarifying. So then, in reality, this video should be retitled from an absolute to a relative nature. It should be "Why *THESE" Male Lions Need Lionesses To Help Them Survive." That's probably where a lot of the confusion lies.
Dinoman9877
Male lions being lazy, etc.. is a big myth. They arent lazy. They are capable of hunting on their own. Studies said that male lions because of their mane, they use more vegetation to sneak up on their prey more.
+ paul cooper paul cooper Yeah totally. There are a lot of dumb, made-up anti-male myths that get pushed around. For example, you can Google "best and worst animal dads" and the male lion appears on both sides, depending on which stupid "study" was done, and by who. Unsurprisingly, we humans really don't know shit, but we place our own values on animals like we know something and it becomes "fact." Also, this misleading title really doesn't help.

@Kobin Kuzmiak who?
theyre pretty lit ngl
Both male and female lions would easily be able to survive on their own, but in order for the pride to survive they both need each other
I'm sure you're right but I think maybe the male might live a little longer on his own because they're used to it (whilst looking for a pride to take over). Females are more familiar with group settings and are not very effective hunters on their own, except for small prey maybe. I've never heard of a situation where a female survives on her own would be interested to hear about it
Damn, she's so powerful!

@@foolishpetra3688 😂😂😂😂Yeah okay
"Get me some food. Then maybe we can talk about having children." I like that the lion society know there's things they need from each other to survive. Though I have seen several male coalitions hunting buffalo, rhino and giraffe without the lionesses. Also, how do they survive while patrolling their territories or in their nomadic years before they acquire a pride of their own?
An refreshing comment finally.
This video is greatly misleading, the title was purely intended to create a call to action. Male lions are very able hunters if needed, however most hunting grounds are already acquired by existing prides and of course males. It is very risky for them to expend great energy during a hunt only to have the high potential possibility of coalitions or males within whichever territory to then initiate attacks catching them off guard and exhausted. So to avoid that, they will often scavenge or steal food from other predators if possible, only hunting if they are driven to do so. However they often lack the speed, sustenance and agility that lionesses provide, with their less bulkier bodies, more adapted to stealthily melting into the terrain to stalk out prey, as opposed to a thick heavy mane retaining heat as well as sticking out like a sore thumb. So while they are actually quite abled hunters, in the long run it isn’t too feasible, not to mention their instinct is heavily ingrained on procreating their bloodline and claiming territories once they have left their natal prides. It is also worthy to understand that we only see a good documented 30% of what actually happens in lion society, I’m more aware of this now studying zoology, in particular big cats, before this I was conditioned to believe whatever was documented on tv or videos. I’m merely one opinion based on knowledge I’ve acquired from those directly in the field, if you wish to gain a stronger understanding, I absolutely urge you to seek out feasible sources working in the field or even through social media pages where a lot of them are open to answering tough questions.

Male lions aren't "lazy"
They make sure that no one enters their territory. They sometimes walk as long as someone would need to walk around Paris.
They mark trees, hold back danger & if need be, they fight off younger lions who challenge them.
They risk their lives for their prides.
Lionesses do the hunting & take care of the cubs in the pride, not only their own.
This is how it works.
It's really uncalled for to call them "lazy"

Male lions don't risk their lives for their pride. If they are challanged by another male and the other male seems to be winning the male will just leave and let his cubs be killed.
male lions also are a key part in hunting large prey such as elephants

Yak Idk what you’re talking about but hyenas are ruled by female hyenas and and most girls aren’t stupid enough to walk straight to a pack of lions/hyenas/wolfs etc. without something to defend themselves with and also, I doubt a man would have enough brains to know what to do if a shark or elephant tried to attack them then again most people aren’t like me and go out of there way and learn different animals body language or ways to defend them selfs against that animal
That's a very heavy collar on the Lion's neck. It surely impacted Lions' hunting speed and exhausted them more.

Male lions aren’t lazy they have extremely difficult and constantly tested lives. Having to survive on their own alot don’t survive usually have to have a brother but they are kicked out of their natal pride and they earn everything by fighting for it.

Kind of a misleading title and video, tbh. Male lions are perfectly capable of hunting on their own. Obviously, living on your own is much harder than living in a large group, but they're not lazy and they don't lack survival skills. In fact, they even hunt with their pride many times.
tail feather Most male lions die without a pride because it is so hard for them to get food. They are bigger, slower, and they stand out a lot more than females do. Male lions yes, can hunt on their own, but it is very rare for a male lion or even two to survive by themselves on hunting alone. Most male lions are scavengers and bully other predators off kills before finding and taking over a pride, and if they don‘t find a pride they will die.
It’s one of the ways nature balances the world, in a very cruel way of course, but you can‘t change what has a purpose.

Collared lions typically enjoy a high level of protection as a result of close monitoring. ... Collaring does not only save lions from human threats but also protects them from disease. In 1994 radio collars saved the Serengeti's lion population from a major disease outbreak.
1.Young male lion gets kick out of pride and becomes a nomad.
2. The nomad then has to fend for itself, survive until he's strong enough.
3. Now an adult, the nomad has to fight to dethrone a king, risking death in order to earn the right to pass on his genes.

It is a bit annoying when people come along and say the male lion is lazy and does nothing because he sleeps during the day. The male is mostly nocturnal because hyenas are mostly nocturnal and he’s warding them off during the night fighting off entire clans sometimes getting his face ripped apart. They are always covered in scars and he’s certainly entitled to his share of what the females hunt his job is simply harder gazelles don’t fight back.
Very beautiful lioness
Notoriously lazy? Male lions walks for miles and miles each day securing their territories.
They fight off any intruder, from other males(at times multiple males) to any other predator, even whole packs of hyenas.
I think the least the females can do is hunt every few days. Their 'society' works out well for both the lion and lioness. Even though a male can hunt on his own, his mane etc make him stand out more and he might be less successful, so he needs the females to help. They're small, blend in better, don't have huge manes or a dominating scent or presence. Where as on the flip side, the females also need the males for survival. Without the male there, the females would constantly lose their catch to hyenas and other predators, as they would rather attack a pride of lionesses than a single male.
That's how they evolved. They need each other.
I need a lioness in my life
The title is something, yet the content is something else!
Yea, it’s what started the sexist war.
In their language, i think, this is the definition of love, to need each other to survive. Maybe in the human too, only there we call it life.

The Lion sits on his arse
Some prides that are dependent on buffalo struggle when the male coalition isn’t there. There’s a video somewhere of a buffalo running full speed with two lionesses on him, they jump off as a male lion grabs it and the buffalo comes to an almost immediate halt. The number one result if you search lion take down buffalo is a lone male lion taking down a buffalo. They can hunt just fine, it’s just easier to steal.
I don’t know why they always say lions are lazy. Their job is to set up and protect the territory more than hunt. The lionesses hunt more and take care of the young with other females. Everyone has a purpose.

@@rasher331 yess, more generalisation please! keep the bigotry coming, I almost felt like I had a speck of self esteem for a second.
It depends on the area and behavior though, if its smaller faster prey in the area, then males would be very dependent on females, if its larger prey like cape buffalo males would be more valuable hunting assets,
no groups of females would go after it.

Difference between humans and lions, male lion kills her cubs from previous tryst but she doesn't stab him in the back later in life.
I'm so sorry to the boys right here.. but lionesses can hunt by their own, males only hunt in groups. Lionesses are the main food providers to their pack, males power is basically reproductive. The thing here is, they both need each other.
Laura Alejandra Manchola Rojas The Lions also protect the lionesses from getting attacked by other animals.

The real duty of male lion is to guard his pride, he is always ready to fight against the incoming male lions. Male protects the pride, females hunts for the pride.
Complete bullshit males are perfectly capable of hunting on their own .I've seen plenty of videos
@@fiststicks851 yes, that's right. Females need males to take down large prey and males hunts alone too, because the males who is not part of pride are living by their own and hunts alone mostly. But overall females are better hunter because they got more speed and males are power houses to fight and kill anything that challeges him.
Since the video has nothing to do with the title here’s why male lions need females to survive:
First off, they both need each other, neither are useless.
Females hunt for the pride to survive, take care of Cubs, and help other lionesses with cubs.
Males protect the pride, mates, and cubs. Sometimes they help with hunts.
They both teach their cubs how to survive and hunt, and cubs also wrestle each other to learn how to fight.
Males often fight more for mates or to join a pride, but it doesn’t mean that females don’t. Sometimes it’s a whole pride vs another pride.
for people arguing who is stronger:
Lions female and male are strong animals and you shouldn’t mess with them but, males are stronger than most females, it’s just nature and it isn’t because they are males, it’s because what they are built for and what they do. Females hunt, males have more fights, which is why they have manes. Think about it, females mostly stay in the pride they are born in, males are kicked out, so most of the time they have to fight to join a pride. If you have common sense you would understand
This is not my opinion this is only facts and nature

Not true. They need each other to reproduce, but two dudes can go gay, and two chicks can go lez.
Smithsonian perpetuating the myth that male lions are lazy and don't hunt. Awesome job guys.
Stephen Putnick they hunt but not as good as loinesses because of their mane and weight. Lionesses are faster and have more stamina
There is another comment in the comment section that explains that that male lion's life is tougher than female. This video is just about prime time of male lions.
@Glenna Smith females have a group that's why. Make lions usually hunt when they are alone.
@@puneetsingh2772 Yes, and males are a prime hunter
They hunt to survive before they can lead a herd, after that all changes, their work is to defend the herd, hunting is demanded to lionesses. Btw a lion is a great hunter, lionesses work together, the lion kills alone and failing is not a chance...
the males advertise their presence
"OI OUT THERE, THERE'S 2 HOT LIONS OUT HERE!"
