++CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN LOOPED++ This is the moment a male lion was attacked by females after he tried to join their pride.
The footage, captured on January 28 in Botswana, shows the furious lionesses biting and scratching the lion.
Eventually, the male attempts to escape and can be seen running away from the pride.
The filmer later wrote online: ''A young nomad male Lion then tried to join the group and was driven off by the dominant lioness of the group with the rest of the pride joining her to chase the young lion away.
''Lion prides in Botswana have bigger territories and Males patrolling these borders might stay away longer from the rest of their pride.''
