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.

Lions may not choose to commit suicide. But from Limpers perspective, fleeing may be just as much suicidal.
Its not that hard to believe he may stay and prefer to try to fight first. The odds indeed aren't that bad against them and they can always run later.
As i said, from that post of Nhenha/NK vs Limper, he was described basically "too weak to fight", so looks like he cant fight.
Lions dont plan future like this, they act in the moment, from his perspective, in this weak state, fleeing is the best option as he knows he is too weak to fight.
Lion cant have tought process like "oh i will die anyways so i might just try and fight", they dont use logic like us humans.
I doubt that. If that was the case, he and Scar would have fled a long time ago. Animals are not just some mindless automatons.
Keep in mind, we are not talking about fleeing as in escaping a dangerous situation. But fleeing as in abandoning the pride and go nomadic again, even after the danger from the fight has passed.

Has the Xinghungwe lioness had her cubs yet? Skorro, Jr has more than a couple fronts to be concerned about.
Not that I know off. But I don't think those are on his mind as he doesn't really hang out with her as much outside of mating.
