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.
That's just hyper focusing on just one aspect of lion society while completely ignoring the others.
Al a coalition does is protect a pride and thats it.
The prides hunt for food, raise the cubs and teach them how to hunt etc. They also share in the protection of the cubs as well.
Its like saying that the military is the most important part of a nation because they protect it. But without a stable government, food production, economy and education system. There just isn't a nation.
We have seen prides being able to protect their cubs for a year without male protection. But have we ever seen a male coalition raise cubs without lionesses?
Nor do nomadic prides wander around. Even in those circumstances they will stick to their own land to avoid conflicts with other prides.
So the idea of somekind of domino effect of prides attacking prides is far fetched too.
