Episode synopsis
In the perpetual fight for dominance it's never wise to keep your enemies too close - something both lions and cheetahs knows all too well. In many social animal groups, evicted males team up to form a single formidable force that can overthrow the alpha. These powerhouses are better known as male coalitions. The demise of a family's dominant male leaves a gap for a new coalition to take over - in this episode we follow these male gangs on their journey to dominance and establishing new territories and mating rights
