Lions mating successfully. THE LIONESS SMACKS THE MALE SAYING ENOUGH
is not really fighting more a way for the lioness saying stop. All female cats have similar behavior.
To what have read, mating is painful for female felines. Although not at the lion level, female domestic cat would have similar reaction. We can only imagine what the poor lioness endure, lions may mate every 15 min or so up to 150 times in just
2-3 days!
During this time normally lions don't hunt, therefore don't eat. This is not all, lions are social, so the same lioness will also mate with each pride dominant males as well. Normally there are more adult lionesses than males. Each male will mate with each of them as well. It is also an additional evidence for both genders of the lion's toughness. Healthy male lions have high levels of testosterone fighting regularly, they are already very aggressive in mating time even more.
