Lion mating ritual up close

It's not a behaviour often captured on film, but the Earth Touch crew recently got the chance to film African lions mating in the wild! When it comes lion mating rituals, it's all about speed and stamina (and plenty of aggression). And monogamy is out of the window -- females will mate with more than one suitor and since there's no specific breeding period, lions mate several times a year -- and a mating marathon can involve twenty to forty romps a day (the amorous pair often doesn't even stop to eat!).
