+vic Jas I really admire the fact that the lioness choose not to go straight for the kill to certify the kill and have it be the least struggle possible, it was so sexy if you ask me. Look for when it shoots for the kill and when it doesn't... It doesn't sexually arouse me but intelligently i guess.

joseph quezada take some treatment for your paranoid

+vic Jas they always do, that's what makes them lions. I saw a film where a cape buffalo bull killed a lion cub, and it was trampled, mortally wounded, and the bull put his nose close to sniff it, and the cub bit it right on it's snout with it's last strength. The bull then stomped it some more and it was dead.

nature bitch.

Unlike humans, they don't do it just to be mean...

This dude totally gets it

She appears to have been not right in her head- as they stated this is very unusual behaviour. She's like that one psychopath out of 10.

Too bad there's no way in finding out why or what triggered her. Maybe if scientists/researchers study her brain when she dies to see if she has any brain tumor or abnormalities to gain some insight. Or she's simply just a pyscho lioness as someone suggested. I wish someone (lion, lioness, rancher) would have stopped her....

***** Do you have a need for quantum physics? How small are you?

***** Yea that's about it.

Not to be a dick but seeing the number of wars, slaughters, massacres and genocides... Well... humans are kinda the same too. But that's even worse because we have the capacity to think about our actions so we should not do it...

+cnn8420 You do realize that there are many reports of people slaughtering their whole families around the world. We are also animals too, just more evolved.

He went out fighting. What do you not understand about that statement? I didn't say that the cub hit, scratched, bit, or hurt the other animal. Going out fighting has more to do with heart, attitude, and mentality rather than how many points scored. But then again, I wouldn't expect anyone with your amount of brain cells to know that. Anyone who attacks a person for having an opinion HAS to be the true moron. Bye, bye troll.

Sadly, nothing could have helped the cubs. That first one would have been killed no matter what it did. It was doing what it did (clawing, trying to roar) in a desperate attempt not to be killed by the lioness and hopefully scare it off but there was no chance of that, it was too small to threaten the lioness. The lioness was just waiting for the right opportunity to strike.

Alex F Nature can very cruel,I guess.You probably right.

It was attacking because i think the lioness was going for the cubs behind.

She probably was proud of the little cub fighting back. Like a true lion. The other cub seemed a bit clueless or unaware. Super cute though

+Mapogo606 it probably could sense what was going to happen and was trying to defend itself IDK

+Brandon G Not quite. It is kind of weird, considering they are two sub prides yet related to each other. The cubs' father is the same father of the cubs of the larger pride. And not only that, but it's common for lionesses to care for cubs regardless if they are the mothers or not. The narrator commented on how strange it was and even the other lions were a little confused by the lioness's behavior.

+Brandon G I'm guessing he did it for the tourists benefit.

No, this is unusual because they still smell the genes of a relative. It's like aunt seeing a nephew and killing him. It has happened, for sure, but it's particularly barbaric. Plus she continued to do it- so she is a psychopath in our terms.

I'm confused. Did you watch the video doedelzak? It literally states that they are related and interactions have occurred between them.

they are not all respectfully you should see god damn it i forgot but loins would 4v1 and rip each other apart slowly

+willi jones What did you expect them to do? You saw how the lion cub was acting towards the lioness. You think it would just become docile for humans? And if they did somehow catch it, then what?

What do you mean by then what? Obviously, you bring the cub back to it's pride.

+willi jones You would become their lunch before reaching back to the door.

+willi jones i would do the same

+d314j4 a lions toung is like a Sandpaper, when it licks it's making it easier to eat. But there is diffrent with the licking. All lions lick before they bite to eat

+d314j4 i see lots of animals doing that. dont know what it is. our dogs aswell. they lick and smell a juicy bone or real piece of meat before they eat it. i guess its similar to us staring at our food before we eat it.

+d314j4 The licking part is actually to remove the fur from the skin. Lions actually have a very rough tongue like other predators. Its like a sand paper. It removes the fur from the skin before biting a hole onto skin to eat the flesh inside. You noticed that lioness was sniffing and making bitter face .. its because it finds the cub to be repulsive somehow ..something they detest. Its not something that they usually encounter and they are confused, they know that its not one of their own as the cubs smell different... the different smell of the cubs makes them very agitated !!! Therefore they just kill it .. only thing they know to do. They make the same type of bitter face when killing hyenas too. Their sworn enemy. Hyenas are repulsive to them as they kill their young cubs so they always kill hyenas as much as possible 'cos of what Hyenas can do to their pride. Just check other video clips and you will know what I mean ..

Lone Wolf Oh cool, thanks for explaining that! That was nice of you to take the time to write that, thanks :)

Stop haha "family guy" too funny
