A MALE lion returns to his pride after a lengthy absence — and gets savagely beaten up by a group of females.

They pounced as soon as they caught sight of his mane — eventually forcing him to retreat.

Safari guide Ona Basimane, who witnessed the attack in Gomoti, Botswana, said: “He had always been welcome but not on this occasion. Did he have some lipstick on his collar, maybe?”
