Why do male lions only hunt when they are still adults?

Adult male lions love to ambush their prey. Compared with various herbivores on the grassland, lions do not have a speed advantage, so they often have to quietly approach their prey and then attack when hunting, which is easy to expose themselves, so if the male lion participates in the general hunting action, they will often scare the prey away early, and the male lion also hunts, but they do not hunt often, and they rarely participate in hunting. The main role of male lions in a lion pack is to mate and defend the lion pack; The main role of the lioness is to hunt, give birth and raise offspring.

Lions don't have to resort to ambush tactics every time they hunt, and when they encounter a behemoth like a bison, they resort to a "war of attrition". At this time, male lions, who are relatively slow and do not hide themselves, will not sit back and wait for the lioness to hunt, but take the initiative to take advantage of their size. Male lions are larger in size and strength, making it easier to knock out their prey.

As long as the prey falls, it is easy to be hunted by the lions. When it comes to hunting such prey, male lions have a strong desire to behave.

In the lion pack, the female lions are the main hunters. Although lions run at speeds of more than 60 kilometers per hour, their prey is often faster than them. When hunting, these big cats do not pay attention to the direction of the wind and often expose their scents to their prey; And because of the small heart of their massive body, the lions lack the stamina to chase long distances, and they are exhausted after only a long sprint.

As a result, most of the time they have to go home empty-handed. In any case, the lions always carefully get close to the target when hunting, using all the barriers that can be used as a cover to hide themselves as much as possible, approaching the prey to a range of more than 30 meters, and then suddenly and quickly pounce on the target. The lioness clings to her prey while running, then bites the prey's neck until it suffocates to death.

When the male lion cubs grow up, they will be driven out of the group, and they will have to hunt on their own; After taking the leadership position of the lion pack, the male lion is less predatory, and his energy is focused on maintaining the group, and the female lion is equivalent to his slave.

When they become adults, they go to other places, and when they occupy the territory, other lions hunt and bring food.

Because when he becomes an adult, he needs to occupy his own territory.

It's hard to manage when he grows up, and it's also to prepare him for his own life in the future.

Because when you become an adult, you have to hunt on your own.

This is to train its instincts.

Because when you become an adult, you will be kicked out.

At that time, they had to hunt on their own;

1. The main role of male lions in a lion pack is to mate and defend the lion pack; The role of the lioness is to hunt, give birth and raise offspring.

2. The main role of male lions is to mate, but the mane that is too lush is not suitable for participating in raids. When hunting large animals such as bison, it is up to lions to do their job. In addition, the stray male acres of pure chain lions have to hunt by themselves to make a living.

3. In the lion pack, male lions also participate in hunting, and often hunt large animals. The reason why male lions are misunderstood as not participating in predation is that they are difficult to observe because they hunt at night and in areas with lush vegetation.

4. The responsibility of the male lion is more important, patrolling the territory, driving away strange stray male lions, and if the female lioness goes to hunt large prey such as giraffes, hippos, and African buffaloes, the male lion will also participate.

The reason why male lions do not participate in hunting: they are bulky and easy to expose themselves.

The big mane is easy to expose itself, the body is bulky and the hind limbs are small, unable to jump for fear of hitting and biting, destined to rely on the lioness group to feed, the main role of the male lion is to reproduce, drive away other male lions is also to no longer wander, you must know, the wandering male lion is very miserable, there is no predation ability and skills, almost can only pick up carrion, and most of the wandering male lions will starve to death.

Felines. The only one who can starve to death is the male lion. The main task of a male lion in a lion pack is to ensure the safety of the lioness and her cubs, and the second is to mate with the lioness so that she can reproduce more of her offspring.

There is also a rough sense that the male lion needs to inspect the territory, since the inspection territory is also the internal division of labor of the lion group, the division of labor of hunting naturally falls on the head of the female lion.

The lion's special withering point

Lions are rocky clades that move in the morning or dusk or at night. The lion rests for twenty to twenty-one hours a day. Every day after sunset, or when its predation is successful, it emits a roar.

This roar is so loud that it can be transmitted up to nine kilometers away. This roar is to declare that I am full, that this place is mine, that I stand in this place, and that none of you should enter my realm.

Lion: It preys on a variety of herbivores.

At the same time it also eats carrion. The so-called carrion is a decaying animal that is preyed on by other animals, or an animal that has died naturally, but is actually rotten. It also eats this meat, and because of its size and strength, lions usually prey on larger herbivores.

The large body of the male lion is not conducive to hunting.

The average male lion weighs about 2 kilograms, and with the thick mane on the neck of Yan Ming, it is definitely a big man on the grassland.

Compared with the forest, the vegetation on the grassland is relatively low, which cannot hide the huge size of the male lion, and the male lion is easy to be detected early by the prey if he participates in the hunt.

The muscles and physique of male lions are mainly used to seize or defend territory and to breed with lionesses. Compared to the physique of male lions, female lions are better at running, and hunting is much easier than that of male lions.

The task of the male is to protect the tribe from other groups, and the task of the female lion is to hunt and breed.
