 National Geographic called me and
 asked me to write the feminist facts
 about how The Lion King gets lion pride
 dynamics all wrong. I happily complied.
 Lions are matrilineal!!
 In real life, Simba's mom would be running the pride
 A lion expert breaks down lion family dynamics.

 When I contacted Craig Packer, one of the world's leading lion researchers, to
 talk about this story he was IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE. He Skyped me almost
 instantly from a camp in Kenya and said he's been waiting for someone to ask
 him this question since the original film came out.

 Anyway, if The Lion King were real, Nala would be the star, Sarabi would be
 holding her up saying everything the light touches is our kingdom, Simba would
 have left and never come back, and when Nala got old enough Sarabi would
 have carved out a territory for her to rule.

UPDATE:


“Reasons men gave for lecturing me on lion pride social structure and telling me one of the world’s leading lion researchers is wrong (I am not kidding these are real):

-Watched The Lion King DVD extras
-Read a textbook 25 years ago
-Has been to the zoo
-Everyone just knows




If you ever wondered what it’s like to be a woman that communicates science, this is what it’s like. Any expertise you or your sources may have gained over decades of hard work are null and void because someone watched a DVD extra 25 years ago.”
