The Twitterverse recently came together to narrate a story after seeing a post by Daily Mail. The post featured a picture of a lion getting assaulted by two lionesses when he came back home after a long time.

The photographer, Ona Basimane, spoke about the post:
“He had always been welcome but on this occasion, it was clear he was not going to get a hug and a kiss after a long disappearance.”
“As soon as the females caught sight of his mane coming through the brush it was tooth and nail. We watched as the females charged at him and bowled him over with slaps. The roars added to the intensity of the atmosphere.”
“He eventually got up and ran for his life and the females were definitely happy with the punishment they dished out. One of the females even ended up with some lacerations on her ear.”
“It was an incredible experience to witness, especially as it took place very close to our vehicle. Did he have some lipstick on his collar, maybe?”
Twitter thought that the post was hysterical, so they made a movie out of it.
