Female lions, give birth to cubs away from the pride. Typically a lioness will have between one to four cubs in one litter. Lionesses will take care of their cubs until they reach the age of two or three until she carries another litter. The pride forces out the male lion cubs and some of the female lion cubs as well, at which time they must either fend for themselves or find another pride. ..................................................................................................................................................... #science #biology #nature #animal
