Ya, he seems quite large in frame. Nice that he doesn't have a mane so you can see most of his actual body.

I bet this video was posted not for the unique incident, but rather to somehow suggest that a ''large maneless'' lion is the main actor.

That's subadult male, but a bold one nevertheless.

Looking at the color of his nose I'm sure he is adult 3+ for sure, no pink color I can see.

He is definitely a adult, you can see it in color as well as body size compared to females.

???? 
You are never "right" from the posts I have seen. Don't get so defensive because you are corrected, it has nothing to do with a "lion sider" and everything to do with being wrong.

You were corrected by TheLioness, obviously a lion fan. Like most here, hence why their are numerous threads devoted to them. You're to insecure about a pointless debate.

Why are the tiger fans always so emotional?
Insecurities regarding their obsession?
I don't get it.

But anyways i repeat, this topic was posted not to highlight this unique encounter between the lions and the crocodile , but rather to somehow point how eventually a male lion would look without his mane.
You are more sucked up in this debate than me my friend, spamming every darn lion thread with a tiger comparison, same for Guate, which should behave a bit and respect the topic subjects from time to time, a moderator job.

Because he likes to troll.

Why?

- Attention and recognition, even if negative
- The emotional release of venting
- Power (the power to disrupt)
- Vandalism
- The thrill of breaking social conventions
- Sabotaging groups the troll dislikes
- Immaturity


...I think he is rather unassertive in his real life.

Croc stood its groundand put up a good fight, but its just no match for a faster animal on land or very shallow water. Also being outnumbered really hurts it. Hard to fight one when two more are attacking you from the back.
