•  Info Two lionesses in South Luangwa National Park Zambia are scratching a tree to sharpen their claws, with their 4 cubs imitating them. Created by Tagooty - uploaded by Tagooty - nominated by Tagooty -- Tagooty (talk) 13:44, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
•  Support A pride of 2 lionesses with cubs scratching a tree together is an unusual sight. Commons has very few images of lions scratching and none of several lions scratching together, there are no FPs of this behaviour. -- Tagooty (talk) 13:44, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment Nice, but the white balance is too cold/blue IMO. Yann (talk) 19:02, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

• @Yann:  Done I've made the WB warmer. Better? --Tagooty (talk) 02:56, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

• Weak  Support - I wish you could have gotten at least one lion with open eyes that were sharp, and really, the only lion that's fairly sharp at full size has her back to us, but of course this is a photo of wild animals in action, the photo looks fairly decent at 80% of full size on my monitor, and it's really cool to see lionesses scratching trees like domestic cats use scratching posts (and furniture, etc.). Nice composition, too. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:58, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
•  Weak support Per Ikan. --Fabian Roudra Baroi (talk) 02:20, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
