Lionesses

Photowall has put together a wonderful category of lionesses wall murals that shine a light on the females of these amazing big cats. Both male and female lions live in a large group Read morecalled a pride, together with their cubs. The number of lionesses in such a pride can be anywhere from two to twenty. All females within a pride are usually, as sisters, aunts, nieces and so on. There is no rank hierarchy among females, as you will see in lionesses wall murals, and no two are likely to be found together more than half of the time. All female residents know one another and when they meet, the lion greeting ceremony of rubbing and low purring reaffirms their social ties. This beautiful relationship is a staple in lionesses wall murals. Although it might seem that these lionesses wall murals are more suited for a domestic interior, the versatility of this cluster can also be applied to recreational spots and even corporate facilities. All your selected lionesses wall murals can be adjusted to match, or contrast, with your existing interior design, colour schemes and any other decorative elements that come into play.

Great characteristics

As a very diverse symbol, the lion often emanates common traits like majesty, strength, courage, justice, and many more. Commonly referred to as "the king of the beasts," it is a symbol of power and might, whereas the lioness is usually related to the Great Mother and protection. This caring and responsible nature can be witnessed throughout these lionesses wall murals. The females of a pride not only provide food and shelter, but also nurture and affection. Even though the male might rule and protect them, it still the lionesses that do the major lifting. Lionesses wall murals can thus be the perfect gift for a mother, or any female relative for that matter. The strength, care and wisdom can be captured and displayed through lionesses wall murals by Photowall like "Lionesses Forest", for instance.

The protagonist in lionesses wall murals

What most do not know is that the females are mainly the hunters of the pride, while males only hunt when a big kill is involved or the females will not give him a free lunch! Lionesses usually hunt in a group where there is a higher chance of the kill being successful. "Just Hope" is a lionesses wall mural that displays this process, even though they usually hunt at night. These sociable cats hunt together in order to control exclusive hunting grounds and to share food with relatives. As you can see in lionesses wall murals, these gorgeous creatures really place high value on a sense of community. "Whats For Supper" is another lionesses wall mural that is related to the element of hunt. Even though lionesses are the primary hunters, it is still the male lion that gets to eat first, followed by the lionesses and the cubs get whatever is left. This is something you can share with your family and friends when they ask about your wall decoration.

More information

Did you know that lionesses give birth about 4 months after conception with up to 4 cubs at a time? It has to be said though that litters of 2 or 3 are more common. Mothers of young cubs spend most of their time away from the pride, although they may join their companions for brief periods. Lionesses wall murals like "Lion Mother with Cub" perfectly illustrate this chosen isolation. This is due to the fact that cubs are usually hidden in dense bush for approximately six weeks, when they are old enough to join the pride. During these six weeks the cubs rely entirely on their mother looking after them and feeding on their mother's milk. Cubs begin eating meat at about the age of six weeks, but continue to nurse until they are 6-7 months old and remain dependant on their mother for up to two years. This beautiful notion is rendered stunningly in items like "Lion Mother with Cub", one of those spectacular lionesses wall murals that really warm the heart.
