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.

It's a natural thing for it to happen, you can see it with tigers, for example. With them, tough, I don't think it will happen.
Quote:what actually happens when their is big age difference between two male lions, say one is 5 years old and the other 2 or even younger?
It depends a lot on the circumstances where they meet each other. Are both group of males, loners without a coalition? In that case, they may join up.
Is the older male from a coalition and he encounters a young male? Then here you can expect the younger male to be chased away. Lions don't tolerate what they see as competition.
