That lion is a fucking pimp with all his lionesses xD

The lion isn't the "leader" of the pride, nobody is. Males usually don't hunt because they need their energy for other purposes (like fighting competition), and they're not built for the speed, agility and stealth for hunting large prey. Stallions and male spotted hyenas can have harems too, it makes them successful but not necessarily dominant.

@SonMulti kings used others to do their will, so does lions, there is a leader in the pride, there is a leader when hunting

@HotZingers Ok, firstly in case you might have missed it there are 20 dislikes on this video as of now. I was simply making a comedic comment (my style of humour, if you do not like it that's not my problem) about how 20 people are elephants as the elephant comes out second best in this here video. I'm sure you have found it difficult to use your arms in the past seeing as your anatomy lacks funny bones but I hope one day you grow them and have a cheerful and pleasant future.

@ns7557 how can 20 people be elephants????
