Two adult 8-year-old male lions, Jabare and Kwame -- who happen to be brothers -- fought to determine the hierarchy when they were introduced to two females in the lion exhibit at Zoo Miami, spokesman Ron Magill said in a media release.
This is the first time females have been brought to the zoo in over a year.
After several battles, the confrontation was over and Jabare had established himself as the dominant male.
Since the fight, tempers have calmed, Magill said.
"Zoo Miami is one of less than a handful of zoos in the country to successfully exhibit a coalition of adult males with females on a single exhibit," Magill said.
