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.

I don't think it's the males fault per se. I think it's merely an instinctive reaction to what the females did.
As to why the lionesses are acting this way, I'm not sure.
But it could be that they are on high alert knowing that the Matshapiri males may be around, so seeing two big lions may have spooked them.
But clearly the Matimbas know who these lionesses are, that's why they didn't attack them.
I can imagine how puzzled the males must have been with their women's behaviour (something we as men can relate to)...
