Unlike other big cats, lions are very sociable animals. They live in groups, more or less there are about 30 lions in the group. Consisting of three males, a dozen females, and the rest of their children. The number of group members is determined by the availability of food and water.
Members of the group keep track of one another with a roar. Lion males and females have very strong roar that can be heard up to 8 km.
Men and women take on a very different role in the group. Male lions spend their time keeping their region and their children. They maintain the boundaries of their territory.
Lionesses are the main hunters group. They are smaller and more agile than from a male lion. But because the prey is generally faster than them, they use teamwork to subdue prey.
Lions usually hunt at night. Their prey is antelope, buffalo, zebra, young elephants, rhinos, hippos, wild boar, crocodiles and giraffes. But they also sometimes eat smaller prey such as rodents, birds, rabbits, lizards, and turtles.
After a successful hunt, all the lions in the group share a meal. But there is a pecking order, with adult males take the first claim, followed by lionesses, and his last.
