Lions have never been known as animals that are good at climbing due to their oversized bodies.

The lion, the top animal of all species, is often known as a symbol of strength, ferocity and majesty. Any animal when faced with a lion is overwhelmed by its majestic, somewhat scary, king-like appearance.

The destructive power of a lion when it reaches adulthood is undeniable. In hunting battles, lions can knock down and destroy prey weighing more than 1 ton. When needing to chase, lions can accelerate up to nearly 60 km/h.

Possessing the aura of a king, there are times when lions also have very ordinary moments.

Lions can be extremely ferocious but sometimes are extremely gentle and playful like kittens. They moan softly when comfortable, but can emit a majestic, fierce roar 8 km away, still terrifying others. Sometimes they appear lazy and lethargic, but other times they are notorious predators, able to take down anyone who gets in their way.

Not only that, when faced with the terrible power of nature, the lion king also has to bow down, revealing a weak appearance that we cannot always see.

A group of tour guides recorded the entire exciting moment of a group of lions trying to climb trees to avoid terrible floods in Kruger National Park, South Africa.

As you know, Kruger is one of the most famous and largest wildlife conservation places in South Africa. This is home to many lions, but the most prominent among them is the Vurhami family.

That day, during their inspection trip, the tour guide group passed the Crocodile Bridge area to enter the wild area. The purpose of the trip was to search for wild leopards and other big cats.

Among carnivores, perhaps big cat relatives are predators that are both attractive and courageous.

The group of big cats includes five members, ranked by size and body weight: tiger, lion, jaguar, leopard and snow leopard.

It didn’t take long for the group to find a big cat wandering in a tree. At first, everyone thought it was a leopard. However, upon closer inspection, everyone was surprised to discover that the animal was a lion. Finally, these people lived long enough to witness the day when lions climbed trees.

Even though they belong to the “big cat” family, lions have never mastered this family’s seemingly hereditary skill. All because of his oversized, somewhat imposing body, the climbing ability of the “king of the forest” is greatly affected. Not very good, but when in situations where flexibility is required, lions can still use this skill set.

According to experts, perhaps because lions do not like the wet environment caused by floods, they have to climb trees for shelter.
