lion pride

A lion pride is a social group consisting mainly of related adult females, their offspring, and a few males. The pride typically varies in size and is led by one or more dominant males who defend the group and ensure access to mates. Female lions work together to hunt and care for the young, forming strong social bonds. Pride living increases survival chances and reproductive success. This social structure is characteristic of lions, contrasting with solitary big cats. The pride's cooperation and territorial behavior help lions thrive in their habitats across Africa and parts of Asia.
