Lions do not get pregnant; lionesses do.

The average gestation period for Lions is around 105-113 days. The female gives birth to a litter of one to four cubs in a secluded den usually away from the rest of the pride. She will often hunt by herself while the cubs are still helpless, staying relatively close to the thicket or den where the cubs are kept. After a few weeks she will rejoin the Pride along with her cubs The gestation period for a lion is 105 to 110 days. The size of the litter is two to four cubs. African lions live to be about 15 years old in the wild, and around the age of 30 in captivity. 105 days The average gestation period for Lions is around 110 days.

Females begin reproducing when they're about 2 years old, and they breed every other year. Courtship begins when a roaming female in heat makes frequent calls and leaves scent that attracts males. After locating the female, the male accompanies her for just a few days, during which time mating occurs. Breeding can take place throughout the year. Most females give birth between May and October, following a three-month gestation period. The average litter-size is three kittens.

about 6 months.
