Why Do Lions Climb Trees?
While the exact reason why these lions climb trees remains a topic of curiosity and study, there are several theories. Some suggest they climb to escape the heat on the ground, enjoy a better vantage point to spot prey, or avoid pesky insects like tsetse flies. Regardless of the reason, seeing these majestic creatures lounging in the branches of fig and acacia trees is an unforgettable sight.
