Silent and focused, the lioness advances with soft steps, ready to pounce on her prey. In the savannah, it is the females who do most of the hunting. Organized and united, they hunt in groups to trap animals faster than them, such as antelopes or zebras. Their cunning and coordination are what make them so effective.
A surprising fact: despite their major role in hunting, it is often the males who eat first, before the females and cubs can feed. This behavior highlights the importance of hierarchy within the pride, but also the strength of their social life.
This Papo figurine perfectly captures the posture of a lioness on the hunt: low body, tense muscles, and a fixed gaze on her prey. A striking model to enrich a wildlife collection, recreate realistic hunting scenes in the savannah, or introduce children to the fascinating behavior of African felines.
