Lion fight. Four male lions fight at Melbourne Zoo

[lucamansan]

Prison fight

[Hikaru2g]

@lucamansan, It's funny you want to say people have low IQ's sigh?

Dude aren't you late for your KKK rally?

[Hikaru2g]

@lucamansan, Proved my point

[JRock005]

Ever seen female lions fight. If it were four lioness, I bet at least one of them would have wound up dead.

[TheHybridlogic]

Lion tag team championship

[MrBeanerKiller]

They are fucking frustrated because they want some pussy

[sandrik100]

They have to use their energy somewhere, so they do fight, but not till the death.

[raikkonen8]

who the heck would put 4 male lions in one hole like that?

[jziban1]

@raikkonen8 Dickheads

[Itrainharder]

@raikkonen8 lol good point, young male lions do hang out in packs but 4 full grown males should not be around each other.

[mijail410]

they look like barbary lions to me

[Sparta861]

are they barbary?

[ItsLeo214]

so powerful!

[turk0571]

i gotta go to that zoo

[bigpileofcack]

Why didn't the keepers stop this ? Surely if they threw one of the brain dead tourists into the cage that would stop the Lions fighting ?

[RoosterRoox]

@bigpileofcack why would you stop nature? let nature resolve its issues without human tree huggers.

[bigpileofcack]

@RoosterRoox "Let nature take it's course"

In a Zoo ? LOL . You cretin ..........

[RoosterRoox]

you're too ignorant to even look outside a window, I won't argue with you, catch up with the rest of the world and maybe we can talk then. But using " words such as "Cretin" and "brain dead tourist" is more than enough to deduce your character.

[bigpileofcack]

@RoosterRoox If I look outside my window all I see is people like you that can't see the wood for the trees sanctimoniously preachig to others about the merits of a truck load of tourists that can't even respect the dignity or poignancy of a moment witnessed without woohooing ,giggling and laughing. These tours are designed to make money which supposedly is for the benefit of the animals being exploited, yer right .I'm sure that happens in Africa where there's no corruption what so ever .

[ManyMeows58]

If you have to ask, then maybe you shouldn't. Just wonder if I am or not.

[NNJED61]

aussies how they can put huge lions living together?

[75whm]

Man, even in captivity these guys cant help wracking up the battle scars.

[b1njjj95]

At least they didn't completely destroy each other. Those "battle wounds" at the end weren't so bad. I've seen far more worse wounds on lions after getting into serious battles.

[ManyMeows58]

They should not have so many male lions in one area. What are they thinking of?

[ObjectInnovation]

@ManyMeows58 are you a lion expert? lol

[cageybee777]

mad

[Jcrusader57]

worth the price of admission

[MrKatanaKid]

All these lions are either brothers, or cousins (which is unlikely) you can sort of tell by out thick and similar their manes are.

[furelise0]

@ SickMindedAllen, you are truly a sicko, we've had more than enuf sickos on this planet, we don't need another one, know that to do?

[Applemansful]

Those lions need some pussy.

[PrettyBoyCranking]

these are Barbary lions.. thought to be extincted a long time ago but rediscovered in 2011.. the largest lions known today..

[tigerbeast777]

@PrettyBoyCranking barbery being the largest is by far questionable,there re larger specimen in the ngorogoro crater and some southern africa parks,due to presence of prey all year through rather the masai mara and seregenti were prey migrates,all lions have been known to grow entended manes to the belly when in cooler climate not just barbary.brbery have also been around fior sometime now,check out their wikipedia on google.

[apharot]

@tigerbeast777 Barbary are the biggest on average. There are ALWAYS exceptions, such as the ones that live in a swap and feed on nothing but buffalo, they have to be bigger. But Barbary lions tend to average on par with the bigger of the tigers. Unfortunately, Barbary are only left in captivity now. Though there has been some discussion on rewilding them, I doubt it will happen.

[tigerbeast777]

@apharot thats abit too generalised being that all barbary live in zoo ,where they are well fed,never have to hunt or compete for territory,sme as all the measured tigers weighed tigers they all from zoo sources,am very familiar with a big animal park zoo here,,shows you some interesting facts,say lengths,head to butt ,tigers and lions are similar length,but tigers have longer tails,to some thats already concreted facts tigers are big becomes generalised,which isnt true,individuals vary

[apharot]

@tigerbeast777 It's not generalized at all. The average adult male in the wild is estimated to have weighed in at around 550 lbs. Average female was 350 lbs. It was 11 feet long, but only around 3 feet tall (about a foot shorter than regular African Lions). They were approximately 50% bigger than today's lions. That's pretty darn big! But it's not really an argument that can be made anymore since they no longer live in the wild, and that's what matters most. Personally, I'm a cheetah fan.

[tigerbeast777]

@apharot ,there is need to go re weigh all these cats,wild siberians,vs zoo ones,lions from all parts of africa,.so there is valid,ecological factual results.there is too much hear say in the field,and guess work,it happens alot in indian parks and siberia and china when estimating tiger weights and lengths,and for barbary lions weight may be also some further study,but am glad we all love these cats 4 conservation

[apharot]

@tigerbeast777 I'm not comparing any zoo weights. Zoo weights don't matter, captivity weights tend to be higher as there is no lack of food source (if cared for properly), and they don't get as much exercise. I'm comparing wild weights only, so please drop the captivity weight argument. It's not a valid, scientific argument. The AVERAGE weight of the male barbary lion (Genus: Panthera Species: P.Leo Subspecies: P.l.leo ) is 550 lbs which is greater than the average weight of the

[tigerbeast777]

@apharot ,i like that you got alot of info on barbary lions,its been good trading this knowledge,the only problrm with what you just said there is that ,barbary become extinct in the wild in the early 1900,since then all the barbery population is traced from the the lions kept at the king of moroccos zoo,they were recently assigned as a sub species ,thas when their weights became of interest but you have to note these were captive animals,there is no info about them until later on in captivi

[apharot]

@tigerbeast777 regular male lion. The exceptions you are mentioned are not part of a different subspecies, but are known as Panthera P.leo, while the Barbary is Panthera P.leo P. l. leo. The Barbary lion is a subspecies of the African Lion, which means there are notable differences in them, such as the Barbary being shorter, stockier, and with a generally much bigger mane. The animals you are noting are exceptions to Panthera P.leo but are still Panthera P.leo. On AVERAGE

[apharot]

@tigerbeast777 weight range for a male lion like the ones you are talking about is 330-550...which INCLUDES the weights typically seen in the crater. The AVERAGE weight (not range) for the Barbary is around 550...which means there are bigger and smaller Barbary lions. Keyword being bigger. Barbary lions ON AVERAGE are heavier lions (not generally taller, they were generally shorter).

[tigerbeast777]

@apharot we got 7 barbery lions,4 siberian tigers,two bengal,and normal lions at port lymph they weigh the same to be honest,any way,i guess this is just one of those debts,but its good to trade knowledge,but i for one will prefer individual weights,not averages, not ranges,obvisiousilly,mean,rang­e,average,are great for stastical result,but i would rather measure an individual for an actual figure.but thanks man

[Rawr4war]

Isn't this where that guy jumped the fence and got eaten because his martial arts instructor told him he could kill s wild animal

[dismatica]

say that the lion will fight to the death the more I've watched several videos of him any more kills

[lichong722]

It's like double feral mirror in WOW arena

[preetambgy]

in melbourne everyone fights

[TheCarl6661]

4 w's they'll fuck you till you love 'em, faggot.

[1who2what3where4when]

Fight like women, always sticking their nails in your eyes and shit.

[SickMindedAllen]

I would love 2Lions vs 2 Tigers :)

[bigcomcast]

They look like Barbary lions.

[ed2kou1]

Lions are tough!

[BoyGerman95]

It's like a 2 vs. 2 battle. Better than WWE and UFC combined. :3

[kassannova44]

People, only the Barbary and the Abyssinian Lions have this kind of mane. It extends all the way to the abdomen and back. Real majestic animals. Pity for the Abyssinian lions, of which only 1000 are left in the wild.

[conner1712]

over crowding, morans that run the zoo, what a shame.

[ABUsofiaan]

so what its animals of australia!

havent any one heard about australian homo-sapien fights..??

[BeeHerman]

Any day I see a lion get its face clawed out is a good day for me!

[attykon]

damn those lions are fucking badass

[Leodelli]

@OSORIOO Only the barbary lions have a mane on the abdomen

[OSORIOO]

@Leodelli It is weather related, couse South Africa has a cold climate to

[Leodelli]

The manes are so black because they are barbary lions

[OSORIOO]

@Leodelli I have been to south africa last summer.. we saw them in the wild allso so they ain't barbary lion

[kswampboi]

they are true Barbary Lions thats why the manes are so black

[tigerbeast777]

beautiful manes

[mezie]

rule number one never put 4 male african lions on a small enclosure, it will lead to fight for space and territory. those zookeepers have failed ZOOLOGY 101

[ThaOneChrisJONES]

@mezie If they are in the same enclosure it's because they are brothers and are just having a little family dissagreement.... lol

[phantompanther]

Yeesh. I wonder what caused them to do that. O_o Anyone happen to know how large their exhibit is and if the zoo has an off-exhibit area that they could use to separate them if they need to ( it might have just been a one time thing? )?

[PantheraAtrox]

@phantompanther , all want 2 be top cat........and were jocking for position.

[MuerteyMalevolencia]

@PantheraAtrox

Strong felines

[mannyviews]

thks - no idea why the manes are so black - may be the cool weather? :-) or may be genetix

[LionLuver24]

@mannyviews Black manes come with age. these four males are simply older.

[ThaOneChrisJONES]

@LionLuver24 Actually black manes can also be genetic and also show that they have more testosterone then perhaps a brown/blonde maned Lion.

[PantheraAtrox]

@mannyviews , both genetics and sometimes age play a role on mane/nose coloration. It tells the females he's in his prime.

[ThaOneChrisJONES]

@mannyviews Most likely genetics, it means they have ALOT of testosterone. These beautiful boys would look like body building super models to wild Lionesses lol. Ovcourse this is because they are spoiled.

[megamonsterhouse]

@mannyviews the darker they are, the best chance of them getting a female. It has to do with age I think.

[izy51]

@mannyviews the darker the mane the more healthy the lion and more likely a female would breed with it and also how well it can survive, it is also a deterrent to other male lions. To get the mane this black a lion would have to have good genes and be well fed. Think this quiet a recent discovery saw it on nat geo. so from looking at these four lions they were all very good genetics.

[lalu88elche]

@izy51 the darker the mane the more testosterone they have been exposed

[scorpiosaturnring]

@mannyviews it's a general sign of excellent health.

[PrettyBoyCranking]

@mannyviews these are barbary lions i believe..

[tigerbeast777]

@mannyviews cooler weather

[tigerbeast777]

@mannyviews and age,they are around 10 or more years

[apharot]

@mannyviews It's possible they are barbary lions. Those only exist in captivity now and tend to have bigger, darker manes, but are generally also bigger lions.

[rpblock150]

sik video :P nvr wuda expected this to happen in a zoo lol ..why do these lions have 80% black hair on thier manes and their manes extend all da way poast thier stomachs... other male lions ive seen hav less hair on thier mane and hav more goldenish hair than they hav black hair :s...sick video still
