Lioness gives lion a loud earful to show it who is boss

A wildlife photographer captured amazing video of a lioness giving a lion a loud earful as they square off on a dirt road at the Gir National Park and Wildlife Sanctuary in Gurjarat, western India.

The wildlife sanctuary was established to protect Asiatic lions, but in this video by Zubin Ashara, it appears that the lion is in need of protection from the lioness. Clearly the King of the Jungle got his comeuppance from the Queen. Turn up the volume if you dare:

Not surprisingly the video prompted all kinds of husband-wife jokes on Twitter. Here’s a sample:

“Doesn’t matter if you are king of jungle. Queen rules!”

“Classic husband-wife morning argument.”

“OK, OK! I’ll wear a mask and wash my hands as soon as I get home next times. Sheesh.”

“Married people need no explanation.”

“Women rule everywhere.”

Also on FTW Outdoors: A human-sized bat? It’s big, and photo is real, but…

“Happens in almost all families.”

“In the wild it’s matriarchy all the way.”

“Wife wins…always!”

“When husband says you can’t use my credit card for shopping.”

There were plenty others, but you get the idea.
