Lions actually have little trouble going up a tree. It's the getting back down again that they struggle with. Which is why they generally avoid making the climb.

[@TheKomentor]

Same with our cat. It starts crying for us after being chased up our tree by enemy cat.

[@jmbisme]

Additionally they do not maneuver well up in the trees. They’re just too large and not agile up in the tree tops.

Almost all cats have that problem, Leopards and Jags are Ok at climbing down trees but only the Margay who can twist their hind legs 180 degrees are true tree cats.

Their special skill of speed has served them well. Good luck trying to chase down a cheetah with room to run.

[@japanesecar1501]

​@@Xosidhethey can't though. They live because the heftier cousins allow them. A cheetah needs 5 minutes to catch its breath after hunting, and over 15 to reasonably recuperate. Lions, hyenas and leopards drive them off and often do not chase. Their kills are better than killing them. Dudes use hide gloves and overalls when catching cheetahs. They are properly weak cats. The mouth is only good on the backs of vulnerable smaller animals.

Without getting in any of the specifics or the "poetic" part of the tragedy, they had 3 fathers, 3 mothers, and 4 siblings, all now dead, with the exception of one nomadic father. They became orphans in an insane series of tragedies and went to survive in their own for almost a year now, but they need 2 more to be old enough to be accepted by male lions and mate, hopefully rebuilding the pride.
