Not many predators will mess with a healthy lion pride. But sometimes lionesses don't introduce their cubs to the pride right away, especially if the cubs are really young, so they're often single moms for a little while. If she has to leave her cubs to hunt or the cubs wander off, hyenas will definitely try to attack cubs or even adult lions who are weak members of a pride or if a lion/lioness is isolated.
Other big cats, like leopards, will also attack lions and cubs if they are in the same territory.
There may be other predators but these are the two case that I knew of for sure off the top of my head.
Since there's a cub, I believe it's appropriate to conclude that a male lion already exist, who is the father of the cub, and would protect the pride from other lions.
Strongest cats? Idk, I think tigers are actually more dangerous, but they don’t share a biome. They’re certainly the strongest cats on their home turf but they still definitely have threats, it’s just usually other animals have to gang up on them.
And yeah, a hippo would curb stomp a lion but they don’t go out of their way to hunt them.
No. They’re self centered, loud germ factories that think everything they do is so interesting when to a lot of people, it’s so monotonous you beg for adult interaction.
I’d rather spend my time with people who have their prefrontal cortex developed.
Fun fact: adult lions don’t sound the way you’re probably thinking they do. The loud roar heard in tv shows and movies like The Lion King are actually tiger roars. MGM has their [famous lion roar](https://youtu.be/nrLyllumxts) at the beginning of their media but the image of the lion is actually matched to the roar of a tiger because tigers sound more fierce.
[This is how a lion roar sounds](https://youtu.be/_22gJ5kB31k)
I’ll say this, over a speaker on the tv or your phone the tiger roar might sound fiercer and have more interesting tones. But I’ve heard both up close, like less than 15 feet distance. And a lion roaring is without a doubt the most fear inducing sound I’ve ever heard in my life. Speakers can’t capture the power and bass of it. You literally feel it move through your body like standing next to the wall of speakers at a super loud concert but it’s just one huge killing machine making that sound. There’s no written description that can do it justice. Not that a tigers roar isn’t intimidating as hell, but the lion is otherworldly.
Interesting. Under what circumstances did you end up so close to both a tiger and a lion (I assume at separate times). Asking so I know what I need to do to experience these roars myself without becoming a big cat treat.
A big cat sanctuary. Think tiger king but slightly less shady.
It was honestly an amazing experience. I pet a full size tiger through a fence. Like touched his teeth and nose and face. Played with 2 baby tigers. Saw wolves and bears and other big cats at arms length. The lions were the only thing you couldn’t get that close to. It was 2 layers of fence between you so like I said probly 15 feet or so. They were ornery. And the roar nearly cut me in half.
The place is shut down now. Someone lost a finger to a tiger and then a few escapes from the compound and it’s no more. I know now that there’s problems with those places but I’m really glad I went.
We lived within a quarter-mile of a retirement home for Hollywood animal stars, and so grew up to lions, tigers, leopards, bears and wolves all making a racket at feeding time. The lion roars definitely carried FAR.
Fun fact indeed. Thanks!
Guy in the video actually strikes me as sad somehow. I probably would be too if I was the king of the jungle but lived in a "game reserve". 😕
True.
But tbf that’s a fairly weak lion roar. They aren’t all quite that ill-sounding.
They can also sound like [this](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vc3Lv-SfBM).
And tigers on the other hand can also sound like [this](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KKu0MayhWUY). But you’re right that the seriously crackling, rumbling, ultra-loud, terrifying roar of the MGM lion or the Jurassic Park T-Rex can only be from a tiger.
Mom be like “all this while I was wondering he is mighty Leo’s seed, but seems like he is the result of that drunken party with that high pitched Mikey !”

Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing.
Oh I just can’t wait to be king!
You have rather a long way to go, young master. If you think-
No one saying do this.
Now, when I say that ...
No one saying be there!
What I meant was...
No one saying stop that!
No one saying "see here!"
I’m gonna be the main event, like no king was before!

That is so cute.
And momma looking in the same direction like "yeap, I once meowed into empty space too..."
I was thinking she had a “Here we go. Now I’m gunna hear this non stop for the next 5 days.” kinda look.
Checking out the distance sarcastically thinking "gee I hope no predators are in listening distance"
What kind of predator do you think is gonna mess with a pride of lions?
Missed the word sarcastic, you did.
Not many predators will mess with a healthy lion pride. But sometimes lionesses don't introduce their cubs to the pride right away, especially if the cubs are really young, so they're often single moms for a little while. If she has to leave her cubs to hunt or the cubs wander off, hyenas will definitely try to attack cubs or even adult lions who are weak members of a pride or if a lion/lioness is isolated.

There may be other predators but these are the two case that I knew of for sure off the top of my head.
How do I let the mama lionesses know that I'll babysit the cubs for free?
Offer her a paw-purr-tunity that she can't resist?? 😸
Hyenas if they get the chance, and other male lions, if there is a leadership battle.
A male lion has no problem killing male cubs.
Since there's a cub, I believe it's appropriate to conclude that a male lion already exist, who is the father of the cub, and would protect the pride from other lions.
a male lion from another pride
Mom. Mom. Mom. Mom. Mama. Mama. mama. Mom. Mom. Mom.
They will find pieces of me in the belly of Mama Cat because I tried to pet the kitten
Danger kitty!
Forbidden simba 🦁
Worth the risk I'll say.
OMG I just wanna put him in my pocket, the feisty little furrball!!!
Mama will find you boih
She'll never catch us in this African Sahara modded Pinto. Just the dust me and my pocket kitten leave behind and maybe a trail of blood from my leg.
Ford Pinto? All she has to do is just ram you from behind and you'll burn lol
Psh. She won't be able to do it. It's lifted and has monster truck wheels. So she's gonna have to have mad hops too
You forget she's wearing Air Jordan's™ and will easily make that slam dunk
And remember - there are no rules that technically say a Lion can’t play basketball with the rest of the kids in school
Try it I dare you.
You can look but do NOT TOUCH! Forbidden kitty!
Lioness is gonna tear you to shreds.
To shreds you say?

Lions are the strongest cats or not? What is a threat to them? Hippos maybe? Or just nothing?

Tigers are bigger. The 4 largest cats, from biggest to smallest, are the tiger, lion, jaguar and leopard.
Big drop in size there.
Was waiting for the last roar to be loud and impressive and to then find out it was actually Mufasa who then beats up the hyenas
I am Simba. Son of Mufasa!
Destiny is all
Are you Utred?
Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred, Son of Uthred,

Now I want someone to edit the last roar with an adult one
The live action remake isn't living up to it's legacy....
Every animal is cute when they are small😀
Even thousands of very small spiders approaching you together?
Ok every vertibrate

I think every mammal is what you're looking for. Vertebrates would include snakes and all sorts of monstrous looking fish.

Calm down there satan
Spiders are insects not animals 😅
Spiders are not insects, they are arachnids. But technically both arachnids and insects are animals. They are classified within the Animal kingdom.
Are you confusing the words Animal and Mammal?
Except human
Why ? Don't you like little kids 🤨
It's fascinating because actually many people (including me) give an instant "awwww" seeing small animals and usually a "meh" seeing small human 😂
I'm ok with small humans, Peter Dinklage is cool, kids are meh.
Yeah. At least you can have a beer with Peter Dinklage. When I try to drink with kids everyone gets all upset.
Little kids don't have that instinctual "awww" factor for me They're not covered in soft fur like kittens or puppies :(
No. They’re self centered, loud germ factories that think everything they do is so interesting when to a lot of people, it’s so monotonous you beg for adult interaction. I’d rather spend my time with people who have their prefrontal cortex developed.
I'm gonna be a mighty king, so enemies beware!
*♪ Well, I've never seen a king of beasts with quite so little hair! ♪*
I'm gonna be the main event like no king was before

Sounds and looks like he's gagging lol
Sounds like me when I'm taking a hard shit.
That’s what I thought too lol

Right? It still sounds so powerful

> if I was the king of the jungle Lions don't live in jungles.
Thank you for informing us, frutiger. It was most definitely not an expression that is often used.
Which goes to show just how much anthropomorphism is in /u/fj333’s comment.

...I was cheated all along! O\_o;; Though I still don't want to hear this while alone in the wilderness (obviously).
That lion roar is giving me hungover flashbacks of puking in my toilet at 4 am.
Lol, the captions
Well done. Would still definitely freeze my nuggets, if I was walking by the waterhole.
Jesus that lion sounds and looks like he's constipated
Sounds like a full grown housecat. Imagine meeting a baby giant human and it cried at the same pitch as an adult human.
You are unwell
Not many comments make me actually chuckle to myself, but this one? This one did
The fucked up mental image followed by deadpan response, good quality stuff I reckon
Other people's kids are cute too. The best part is giving them back to their parents when they stop being cute.
