Look like two females with sub adult kittens.

Probably need to be forming groups now to ward off wolves :chuckle:

Related females will occasionally rendezvous at the edges of their territory, sometimes with their current young in tow. Cool picture!

There are photos, taken on my friend's ranch, that capture eight lions in one frame.

Lion will have a wolf for lunch

Recently saw pictures on Facebook of a lion that was essentially treed by a pack of wolves in the Blues. Can't remember where I saw it.
I'll find it.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The exception rather than the rule.  Pack usually outnumbers one cougar.  One on one...yeah I'll give you that.

I met a guy back in teh 1980s (friend of a friend) who used to snowshoe w/a beagle in a pack basket until he cut a fresh track, then he would close the distance until he was right on top of the lion and would turn the beagle out and it would put the cat up a tree.  Never saw it myself, but heard about it from enough people that I don't doubt it.

There were 4 of them together this year where we were elk hunting.  We have one on camera, two visuals and a audio of them taking down an elk.  A member of our camp swears he heard them snarl at him as he was packing up for the night.  This was in Goose Prairie.
