      An adult cheetah weighs 75 to 140 pounds (34 to 64 kilograms), is about 30 inches (77 centimeters) tall at the shoulder and 44 to 56 inches (112 to 142 centimeters) long with another 26 to 33 inches (66 to 84 centimeters) in tail length. Males are slightly larger than females.
      In general, fully grown male lions weigh in at around 420 pounds, according to Animal Diversity Web of the University of Michigan. They are significantly bigger than female lions, which generally weigh about 280 pounds.

      Muhammed-Yusuf From the size it looks like a full sized female lioness the reason why she ran is because she doesn’t want to get injured if she gets injured then that’ll leave blood out and that’ll make her damaged, And guess who’ll come hyenas who normally torture female lions. So a normal injury could make her weaker to any animal she’s up against

    What a mother! Brave, protective and prepared to do what she needs to in order to protect her young. When I was a child, I was very afraid of "monsters" under the bed, around doors and stuff while I slept. So I'd go into my mum's bed sometimes to sleep. When I was there, my mum made me feel so safe that nothing could ever hurt me. No monsters would dare challenge my mum. That's the power mums have and when Honey was prepared to risk her life for her beautiful babies, it shows her immense love and fierce devotion to her young.

    • @Jackysutarrodetierra
      @Jackysutarrodetierra 5 років тому +151

      The point is she could have hurt her. In a serious fight, the cheetah will get the worst of it for sure, but I think for the lioness, alone as she was, it's not worth it to risk getting a bad wound that could even get infected just to kill a "competitor", more so when cheetah and lions go after different prey normally so it's not even a serious competitor as a hyena might be. So I think it's more about the whole risks than who would kill who. The bottom line is: for this cheetah their cubs were worth dying for, but for the lioness killing them was not worth risking an injury.

    • @Jackysutarrodetierra
      @Jackysutarrodetierra 5 років тому +38

      @NonyaBusiness! In a tropical weather without any medical care even a minor wound is a life threat. Many big animals have died from an infected cut on the paw, specially social animals like lionesses, who need to keep up with the pride. Like I said, the cheetah is not a really serious threat, but the chance of getting a paw (for example) bitten, then infected, and die from that is there and it is not unimaginable.

    • @Joel57able
      @Joel57able 5 років тому +5

    • @Jackysutarrodetierra
      @Jackysutarrodetierra 5 років тому +1

      @lucky strike but the point is the cheetah wasn't sprinting, she was confronting her and even chasing her. It's clear that they would have gotten into a fight, even if it was a 5 second fight and then the cheetah trying to scape. Besides, lions do chase down cheetahs, even when they are impossible for them to catch when they are healthy and at a safe distance, there are tons of videos of that behavior online

Ironically when the male Cheetahs had her cubs cornered an Elephant showed up and ran to the male Cheetahs off and never approached the cubs. A Cheetah, is no threat to an Elephant, even a baby, so in a display of compassion the Elephant protects the baby Cheetahs.

    Amazing! The way that the Cheeta bolted after that lioness was awesome! Never underestimate a Cheeta.

    I have always been fascinated by wildlife, especially African wildlife, but holy shit I never knew that a cheetah would do this. So awesome

      She had to slow it down so she would catch the lioness which can actually run fast but looks like a tortoise by comparison

    Let’s be honest here; if they fought, the Lions would destroy the cheetahs in a heartbeat. The Cheetos confidence won it for her.

  • @MrJamal657
    @MrJamal657 5 років тому +3

    This was something you don't Usually see AT ALL likee, a lion literally running from a Cheetah is verrrryyyyy rare! Cheetahs weigh anywhere from likee 80-120-140 pounds while Lions weigh like 250+, especially a fully grown Lion at that, so that Cheetah had heart and it was just one of those "im ready to fight to death" moments for that Cheetah . I love the wild life!

      The lion didn't seem to be that interested in the first place, the way it approached is just seemed kind of curious. Of course the lion could have taken the cheetah but it didn't really have any reason to fight.

    • @c.galindo9639

      I take it as respect between two females in the wild. The lioness really did seem to want to attack when the cheetah was walking away but when she stood her ground the lioness became curious then disinterested as of making a decision to spare the family’s lives
