Ladies. Gentlemen. All and sundry. This is a sweet video about how true love can overcome obstacles – just in time for Valentine’s day. Love, chemical attraction and obsession are three factors present in both the human and animal world. This video proves just that. Watch how this “Jaydee” lioness overcame obstacles to get to the lion of her dreams.
Let’s explore this tale of love in the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve. The Trilogy are a coalition of three male lions in their prime who displaced the two Ross pride dominant leaders (the Good and the Bad). We suspect they have been mating with the Giraffe pride females and two Ross pride females who have broken away from the pride. The lioness in this video is the “Jaydee” lioness, who crossed over from the Klaserie into a neighbouring property.
Judging from this video, she clearly has her sights set on one of the Trilogy males. She seemed to remain close to the fence line in the hopes of catching a glimpse of her favourite Trilogy male. Here we see him patrolling the fence line. The day after we witnessed this courtship-with-barriers, the “Jaydee” lioness decided that enough is enough. She managed to crawl under the fence and…well…the rest is history !
Happy Valentine’s Day -we hope this video made you purr with delight.
