What is a group of lions called?

A group of lions is called a pride.

A pride typically consists of related females, their offspring, and a small number of adult males. These males, often brothers or a coalition, defend the pride's territory. The size of a pride can vary greatly, ranging from just a few lions to over 30.

The lionesses within a pride are usually the core social unit, cooperating in hunting and raising cubs. They often synchronize their reproductive cycles.

Male lions are responsible for protecting the pride from rivals and predators. Their tenure within a pride is often shorter than that of the females, as they may be challenged and ousted by competing males.

Hunting is a crucial activity for the pride's survival. Lionesses typically do most of the hunting, working together to bring down large prey such as zebras, wildebeest, and buffalo.
