Lions animal world n° 166 p.30

Lions are very strong. They are not scared of any other animals. But all other animals are scared of them !

Where do they live ?
In Africa, on the Savannah (grasslands).

What  do they eat ?
Antelopes, zébras, warthogs and birds...


How big are they ?
They are about as tall as you.


This lion lives with seven lionesses and their cubs.
During the hottest hours of  the day
the group, called a pride, rests in the shade of a tree. ( group of lions== pride)


When the evening comes, the lionesses get up to go hunting.
the lion does not go with them.
In a pride (groupe of lions) of lions, hunting is the job of the females !

One lioness stays with the cubs. Fortunately, the lion is there to scare away
some hyenas that come a bit too close. They would like to catch a lion cub,
but they do not dare attack while the lion is there.

The lionesses have killed a zebra.
The lion and the cubs set off to join them.
The cubs have to run to keep up with their dad !

When the lion arrives, the lionesses have already started eating.
The lion roars to chase them off,
He wants to be the first to eat !

Even the  cubs are not allowed to go near while the lion is eating.
They will be the last to eat.
That is how it is in the world of lions!
