There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Big coalitions sire waaay more cubs to adulthood then smaller coalition or alone males,because they will most likely never lose their territory and those cubs have higher chance to succeed and survive. So idk how that isnt helping for species.
Yes they will prob kill few lions in takeover but thats how it is, they will most likely sire many more then they've killed. And those lions which they kill, prob did the same to other lions, thats how it is for thousands of years.
For the stronger genes point, all lions who reach adulthood are strong, which is like 20% of cubs, theres no weak genes there and coalitions have nothing to do with that.
