That's fascinating. And I guess a positive for the species' prospects that they can be that flexible in their social arrangements. I'm not sure about this statement though: "... living in a pride is not necessarily the default for lions." Even if lions CAN live like solitary cats, does that mean pride living is not the default for lions? Regardless, the fact that lions CAN live like solitary cats is really illuminating, I hadn't heard of lions doing that before. |

Regardless, the fact that lions CAN live like solitary cats is really illuminating, I didn't know that about lions. I definitely disagree there, I think it is default, but modifications can be readily made to adapt to different areas as necessary. Perhaps lion prides in that area evolved to become smaller and smaller adapting to the scarcity of resources until eventually they just ceased to exist. It appears they got considerably smaller as well, almost leopard-like. |

These are usually old male lions ousted by younger males.
