    This picture is edited,... see the face and neck of the deer.  Also its left leg is edited. Edited parts are clearly visible.

    I hope this two wild animal must be friends. But, lioness needs to survive on grass then...

    Animals too have love and compassion. Its time humans learn something from these animals and stop hatred and violence against each other.

    she is not hungry and waiting for kids to come and play with the prey.
    she is not well aware of the world.

    They both have their eyes on each other. The antelope is hoping the lioness will have a momentary lapse, so he/she can make a run for it. The lioness is hoping the antelope tries so she can bring it down.

    Isaiah 11:6   The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

      Isaiah 11:7   And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

    one day smile

    In this picture both animals are unaware of each other. Both animals are not looking at their enemy. So i can say photo is edited or both are in love or caring each other.

    Hi Kumar R Chitnis, and PMS9,

    That image is a real photo that has not been edited. These things do happen. If you check this hub, http://hubpages.com/hub/Hells-Gate-Game … -Baby-Oryx , you will see a real video of a similar situation.

    nice one, nature works in wonder, nice combination although a mother lion can always have mother instinct.

    ha ha these answers are so funny, as if no one sseen this before, they made a whole show about this on discovery or something, but the antelope eventually dies from lack of its mothers milk... it was so sad....

    The lioness likes her dinner fresh. She's just waiting until she is hungry to eat the little antelope.

    Occasionally stuff like this happens in the wild. Those of us who have not had the opportunity to experience a true wilderness find this hard to believe. It is uncommon, but not unheard of. They are not going to be 'friends' forever. Eventually, the predator will eat it or leave it or the prey will take off.

    The lion looks like it has some spots; is that an indicator of a juvenile lion? If so, that could explain a lot in this particular situation. Or the lion could have brought the prey for her young. Or the lion is not hungry and is playing with it. Lots of reasons.

    Why do most assume this is a lioness? Why can't it be a lion? Because it doesn't have a mane and we anthropomorphize that this lion is nurturing the antelope, we assume it must be female. Any juvenile lion could display this behavior.

    That's so sweet ^-^ I've seen animals like that sit peacefully together on Discovery Channel and such, I think it's cute, and just hope the lionness doesn't suddenly get hungry and eat the little antelope

    Jack rabbits dart and leap with grace and speed.  They are so fun to watch.  I love to watch them in the vineyards near our home.

    Animals do have emotions and I think it is possible for animals too to develop friendship or love with another animal species.

    Oh this is so cute and nice. And they seem so relaxed and at peace. Wouldn't it be great if all humans can also be at peace like these two. smile
