Lions mating in Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kasenyi Plains.

Did you know lions have an intense and frequent mating ritual. When a male and female are ready to mate, they separate from the pride and can mate every 15 to 30 minutes sometimes up to 50 times a day for several days.

Each mating lasts only a few seconds. This frequent activity increases the chances of conception.

During this time, the pair rarely eat or hunt, fully focused on the mating process.
