Some lion facts

Thanos wasn’t paying to much attention to me. But was content with his attention lol. #animal #lion #thanos #facts

[@daniellebenson10]

It’s so amazing to see Thanos sitting there like a giant house cat getting pets..what a beautiful animal. I hope we can keep them around

[@jellyfish1333]

Lol I thought the same thing: giant house cat. What an absolutely beautiful creature! I want one!

[@hawkpantera9425]

I didn't know any of that, except that they aren't the largest cat. Thank you for educating all of us. I am an animal lover and I greatly appreciate you dedicating your life to them!!

He looks so happy with the scratches, leaning in to that hand. Huge but still a cat, lol

[@tiffanymohr8891]

Such beautiful animals

[@rexricciardi7703]

Hey Brother. I have been watching you and the animals for a long time. Just want to say Keep Up The Good Work. I have raised large german shepherds for 30 years. I know how it feels for people to pass judgement on large dogs that can be aggressive. But raised right and taken care of are angels and large baby's. thanks again for what you do !!!!!!!!!!

[@starbucksmom4]

Lions are king and queens of Africa. They are the best we need to protect all the animals in this world they all have a great purpose.

[@cherrypie_84]

No matter how big the cat, they can't resist a good head scratch ❤️

[@Ant-Honie]

The circle of life can be and is brutal!!! Not just your regular house cat. We must respect and protect our wild animals, circle of life is so important!

[@sweetpea102]

WoW!!! This is just another reason why I love you 🤍 You keep me informed and I really appreciate your knowledge that you share. Information, that is definitely needed to educate the 'ignorant'. Much love to you and all Animal lovers. Have a wonderful weekend. Toronto sends much love and peace 🤍

Lions the King of the jungle. Yeah that statement always made me confused because even I knew that lions don’t live in jungles.

[@David_Morin_Cuba]

That is beautiful how that gorgeous majestic cat is just loving how you are petting it . I had no idea that they are soooo close to extinction!!!! Wow it’s so sad . I hope there’s a plan to keep the king of the jungle around for ever

[@elisekennedy9965]

True. Folks can tune in to Kevin Richardson, the Lion Whisperer here on KZbin and learn lots about lions, hyena, and black leopards. Kevin is also working hard to educate folks about the plight of lions and helping to work on the issues of canned hunting.

[@paulettebillinge]

Gosh it's frightening to know these facts. We certainly need to protect these magnificent animals, it's about time humans realise that they are not the most important creature living before it's too late. 😢❤❤

[@thetooginator153]

James - I LOVE your channel and how you treat your animal friends. You may consider talking about WHY we humans should want large predators in the wild. One good reason is ecological balance. We’ve seen what happens when animal species have no natural predators: the species overpopulate and consume everything until there’s nothing left to eat, then they starve. Nature isn’t “nice”, it just “is”. Also, we want to maintain a healthy genetic diversity in lions, so our descendants can enjoy seeing these beautiful animals in the wild - even if only in videos. Another reason is that we won’t know what would happen if there are no large predators in the wild, but we DO know that it wouldn’t be good. Humans are dependent on nature for the very air we breathe, so we should let nature flourish as much as we possibly can.

[@paulawarwick1854]

[@chancegivens9390]

I read that lions live in the Kafa Reserve, which apparently is a rainforest/jungle! So at least a small population of lions live in a jungle, still not warranting the "king of the jungle" title, but still pretty cool none the less.

[@globalunitedanimals]

Right on. Your the first animal person online i have heard tell reality about lions. One other thing they incorrectly portray is that lions are kick ass hunters. Reality is they only have a twenty to thirty percent success rate, depending on the pride.

[@debbiehodson8469]

Ummm...I think I wrote King of the jungle, lol! I did wonder at the time of writing whether they were found in the jungle, lol! Now I know why the lioness stays away from the male when they have cubs.Thanks for sharing these interesting facts, James! 😊❤

Super cool, thank you for the education!

[@paulbillue230]

I'm telling you, I want the job to go to where they are being poached. And snipe the poachers. Wouldn't lose a bit of sleep. Love all these animals on here. Breaks my heart to see how close we are to losing them, forever.

[@friryr]

I’m with you a 1000%!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I daydream about storming dog fights with a posse of likeminded people as myself. At gunpoint, we’d force the sons of bitches to fight in similar fashion! Give them a TASTE of their medicine!!!! I understand how this might sound TOO over-the-top to some out there, but that’s the INTENSITY of the rage and disgust this cowardly barbaric practice stirs up within me. I don’t apologize for my sentiments. I’m 70, and have found similar practices abhorrent from a very young age. ( NOW let’s see just how long MY post stays up!! ) Queens NYC

Wow, interesting facts. Thank you.

[@justinjones2978]

First off love your content!! But serious inquiry here, so when you go from one pin to the other of all these different apex predators do they not react to the scent of the previous animal you touch?

[@RondaSmith144Empress]

I did know about the male obliterating the previous male's offspring in order to bring the female into estrus, mating with her, and ensuring his bloodline and thank you for the education😊. Blessings to you, those beautiful animals, and your work❤. I hate to think about them being extinct and we must do better.

[@joshuatoledo8844]

[@aidenfriel5722]

I would love this job but, I don't ever think I would ever get use to them passing away 😢

[@dickfitswell3437]

They won't be extinct by 2050. I would know, I'm a lion 🦁

We must stop encroaching on wild lands ..gosh look what happening to wild horse... Pray for these beauties Amen

[@scallopohare9431]

Thank you!

[@thephantomspectator407]

I know it's an INCREDIBLY rare phenomenon, but is it true that when it actually happens, a lion/tiger hybrid ("liger") can become significantly larger than BOTH parent species? This seems to be the case with the Kodiak/Polar bear hybrids that have started to crop up in recent years, since global warming has started forcing Polar bears to venture further south into Kodiak territory in search of food; and the wild hogs (originally the accidental byproduct of smaller wild pigs sharing territory with farm-raised domestic swine) that do so much damage to crops in the central/southern U.S...?

Lions: not king of jungles but king of plains.

[@resileaf9501]

King of the savannah

[@sandrastevens4418]

Actually among wild horses when mares give birth go in a post birth heat cycle. If during this time the stallion of the herd dies or looses a fight to a younger stronger stallion the new stallion will kill the new born foals and breed with the mares so that his line is next.

[@CJIlluminati]

@Liondad_1987 Does Thanos puuur? like a house cat does? Also Thank you so much for sharing.

[@RZ-sh6yi]

Cant even think of lions being extinct, that would be terrible. (those ears look like velvet 😊)

For the record, there are most definitely still lions living in jungle/rainforest of Africa. It is the extreme edge, but they are indeed there. Game cam footage etc

I guess I dont know how much, if at all, you know about/have interacted with other Wildlife Rescue/Education creators, but why is it that a creator like Safari Sammie can be in the enclosures with her lions/tigers/jaguars, and you cannot? I know you've said in the past it isn't up to you at all, but curious if it has to with regulation/law or more just you didn't raise them from cubhood/have enough hours with a certain type of animal...etc. Your vids are amazing man, keep doin Gods work

[@debbiehodson8469]

Great comment Clayton. I often wonder this as well. Unfortunately, I think, & I could be wrong, but I think social media has has a lot to do with the changes in the park that James works in.We know that social media isn't always good. Perhaps there hasn't been as much comment about the other park you mentioned. Whatever the case, it is very sad, but I guess, necessary. 😮❤😢

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to name them "King of the Plains"?

I don't want to know an Earth where there are no wild lions! Why do humans have to destroy everything with which we come into contact? 🦁❤️ Year 1800 - 1,000,000 lions in the wild 1900 - 500,000 1960 - 200,000 2000 - 40,000 currently - 25,000 🥺

[@feliciaroseantonia]

Not that you said anything wrong really, but just to add to it I suppose: To my knowledge, the part about the, uh... "attacking" the cubs (to put it lightly) is actually pretty rare. What does happen pretty commonly though is the other part about lionesses having multiple litters with different male lions. It's also still believed that in these circumstances, one of the male lions will still be basically regarded as the leader of the pride, and the others will be more submissive around him. But it is also true that male lions tend to be a bit more solitary, from what I can tell.
