Funny Face Expressions of a Lion Proudly Mating With His Lioness

It doesn’t occur often to see wild animals mating with each other, but Photographer Vclav Ilha was able to capture a moment like that in the Massai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.

The picture shows a lion about to mate with a lioness, while in a highly aroused state, standing close to her, roaring and baring all his teeth as he prepares to mount the lioness.

“As soon as the female is ready to mate, she would raise her tail and provoke him by rubbing him or crawling at his feet.

The male follows her impatiently, for the female leaves behind a strong odor.” That was just the beginning of a session that could last up to five days; lions mate up to 200 times, and despite that, the act lasts only a few seconds, they will continue to mate after 20 minutes.

For most of the pet lovers there, we know we are choosing our pets wisely (if we have the chance to). Some things have to be considered, like our capability to raise the animal or the practicality of raising a certain breed. Because sometimes, you would be allured by the look of the pet and only realize that it would be hard to maintain the pet.

The veterinarian Ben (@ben.the.vet) shares the same viewpoint. So he published a video where he ran down the breeds of cats and dogs that would have the most disadvantages for him as a vet. Keep in mind that this list is from a veterinarian’s perspective and is subjective. This does not intend to foster aversion towards the mentioned breeds.
