Then, one of the Lionesses will spring towards the prey and when it starts to run away, the other Lionesses will pounce on it. When the prey is dead, the big male Lion will appear to carry the food back to the rest of the pride. He will eat before the females and cubs. Lionesses also take care of the cubs. Each Lioness can have up to 5 cubs at a time.
Lionesses share the responsibility of raising their young and often feed and clean eachother's cubs.
When the cubs are first born, they have spots. Eventually their spots fade away as they grow toward adulthood. They will go out on their own in search of their own pride. The female cubs usually stay in the same pride as their mother. It may take a few seconds to download.
