There's actually a film called Pride about a pair of lion cubs growing up in the dangerous world of the African Savannah and everything you're describing pretty much happens in the movie, right down to the dangerous buffalo and elephants. Plus, the main villain is another male lion from a different pride called Harry. Harry has a brother called Dark in the film and Dark starts as a villain but gains a redemption arc. Also, Harry is voiced by the late great John Hurt and Dark is voiced by Sean Bean. Martin Freeman is also in the film. He plays an orphan.

Brothers are really all a lion has. His father and uncles exile him, and his mother and sisters don't care. His wives will just mate with the next lion who beats him in a fight. But his brothers stay with him forever. They come to each other for peace and safety. They fight for and protect each other. In rare cases, the father let's the sons stay and forms the coalition with them. The coalition goes and takes over multiple prides to spread the gene pool.

If you're strong enough and for some reason have to that's actually a very good way to restrain a cub, for your safety anyway; controls the direction of the head, raises forepaws out of direct reach, and leaves only the hindclaws to deal with while they kick and struggle to get high enough to catch on flesh. Just keep in mind that restraining a cub is not something you want to have to do, and if you ever see the clip it is obvious that cub is not serious; cause, it responds to being dropped by just staring at the human like they said a bad word.

Honestly I’d love to see more videos like this in the future, feels like it could be a whole series of these survival guides with so many animals out there. A general overview of an animals life, what they need to look out for, how they should interact with rivals and (other) predators, how to get a mate, and how to raise their own young. I’d like to see one on Wolves, Bears, Hyenas, Wolverines/Badgers, Otters, Crocodiles/Alligators, or something like a Jaguar or Tiger for the predatory animals. Cougars could also be interesting to see, given their wide range. For the herbivores maybe things like Moose, Buffalo/Bison, Gazelle, Elephants, and Rhinos.

[@raionshishi8290]

I would like to add Hippos to that list, mainly because I am interested in how they live their final moments, or how they interact with the world when they are old and vice versa. Lions tend to have the worst time when they are old as everything kills them immediately when they get the chance, they barely actually ever reach old age, elephants tend to have an easier time because of their big groups and protection, they even have their own grave site and no animal is simply running up to an elephant even in it's old age, so I am curious about Hippos in that regard and where they fall on that spectrum.

[@siphomnisi3842]

Think with lionesses it hinges on their sisterhood

[@thatyellowfellow]

I can't lie. Lionesses are actually the poster-child for lions. A lot of what we know about lions comes from studying the pride and the majoritively female activity. It was less documented what adolescent males even did in the twilight years between leaving their own pride and establishing a new one. There are countless videos of successful pride hunts and what the lionesses do. There are much less - from previous decades - of nomadic male life. The lion pride is the lioness really. In fact i've barely ever seen documentaries that show the unestablished males constantly getting their food. Like almost never, i'm still curious what their hunting tactics are like compared to adult lions, seeing as fully grown males don't feature a lot in chases, they just show up and either steal the food from the pride to eat first or come in at the end to deliver the final blows.

[@Maybe-may-be-my-name]

1. I think this to be your best video format, because it tells you everything messed up about a species while reminding people about the good things about a species. 2. So maybe Simba and Nala WEREN'T related; and maybe Scar wasn't alpha ONLY because he was weaker (might also explain why he didn't kill Simba himself, or Nala, as he was technically Mufasa's pride turning on Mufasa). (Might also explain the Lion Guard. Also, yes, do talk about the Mapogo coalition.) 3. What are the even, disadvantageous, and unwinnable matchups for lone lion males?

[@Zeppongola]

I would guess even would be Zebra, disadvantageous would be Buffalo and maybe Crocs, and unwinnable would be Giraffes, Rhinos, Hippos and Elephants (assuming adults). Depending on how well fed the Lion is, I could see Zebra dropping to advantageous and Buffalo/Crocs to even, or being unwinnable for less well-fed ones. I don't think a solo Lion, even a very bulky one, would have much of a chance against an adult Rhino, Hippo, or Elephant though. Tierzoo's Giraffe video mentions successful Lion hunts on Giraffes "do happen, but are extremely rare" (whilst posing serious risk to the attackers), in the context of a _group_ of lions, so presumably he'd consider them to be unwinnable in a solo encounter

[@marshallwayne-uf4pq]

If we're talking about a _group_ on lions its definitely not unwinnable, but I'm not sure a lone lion would have much of a chance.

As an adult lion, this guide was really good, i told my brothers to watch it but they didn't and one of them got anihilated by a hippo and the other fucked with an elephant and found out

[@bobdole4916]

This video just made me think - were Scar and Mufasa a pair of nomad lions who took over the pride at Pride Rock? That'd explain why Scar gets to stick around despite Mufasa clearly being the king.

[@HaleyJo1992]

They're brothers. But yeah, they must have nomaded, then Mufasa killed the previous lion king and took over after killing all the cubs. How Scar had no cubs by the time Simba returned is a mystery.

[@jj-gk6rj]

​@@HaleyJo1992Scar had Kovu but then Disney had a moral panic about Kovu getting with Simba's daughter Kiara (in**st) and decided at the last minute, actually no, he's not Scar's kid (even though he clearly is 🙄)

[@pikabolt5196]

@@HaleyJo1992I mean, Scar quite literally says he pulled from the shallow end of the gene pool, so it very well may be that he either had a hard time making cubs, couldn’t, or like father like son got screwed over by the genetic lottery. Then again it’s a Disney movie I’m probably just overthinking it but ehhhh, where’s the fun in that?

[@BonaparteBardithion]

​@@jj-gk6rj On the other hand, they didn't say Nuka wasn't Scar's and they do bear some resemblance, plus he's pretty close to Simba's age. So, maybe Kovu was just adopted and Scar did have a couple of bio kids running around.

[@Mr.ThisGuy21700]

@@jj-gk6rj Simba and Nala would actually be half-siblings in real life, as the leader fathers every cub in the pride. That would explain why we never see her father…

[@cecilevalmont3709]

I'm curious of the growth for a lioness since they can also be solitary. Seeing a "Nala" side would've been interesting

[@John_Weiss]

I'd be interested, too. Because as I understand it, lionesses almost always stay with their birth-pride, sotheir survival rate should be much higher.

[@John-ir4id]

I will never get tired of that second clip. It really puts into perspective how large and intelligent lions are.

[@rickwrites2612]

Yes although I'm sure it took many cars before she figured it out i doubt that lioness (i think) would figure it out first time. I wonder if it's "cultural" ie is it that a lion in this park figured how to open car doors and her children saw, and then you have this small pride that has a "culture" of car door opening? Or does any lion in a park who sees people getting in and out of cars eventually learn this? And if they only saw armed wildlife guides opening door and jumping down off huge jeepy buses as is typical, would lions be able to apply the concept across to consumer cars?

[@John-ir4id]

@@rickwrites2612 I'm inclined to believe that it could be all of the above. There are many ways to learn and I'm not so arrogant to believe that humans are the only ones capable of more than one path to knowledge.

[@AngelOutlaw]

I just wanted to take a minute to appreciate the background music along with the direct message as if the lion was being told a mission he has to accomplish and you're giving him the breakdown on how to complete it 🥰😂

[@AK-jt7kh]

TZ collab! A dream come true! Also - I agree with everyone else. You could easily make this a series if you enjoyed making this video! Tier Zoo has branched off into this but the channel is more about evolution. If you ever run out of animal facts content, you could easily branch off into storytelling the trajectory of a species life. It's honestly fascinating - and an excellent exercise in empathy. There's reasons animals do what they do. When we take what they do out of context, we sensationalize their actions. This kind of storytelling gives people a more accurate perspective and I'm all for it!
