So I propose that we have a way to lend lions. This would mean the lions would come back to the original owner's pride after a chosen period of time. These lionesses would be blocked from being sold, chased, nature reserved, or otherwise edited, though this would be allowed to be changed by the owner. One could allow breeding, removal/adding of decor, and posing/mod-ing/adding markings or bases. When transferring these lions, a message would be shown on the recipient's page about it being lent, and the transfer, unlike a gift, would have to be accepted.
As the person it was lent to would not be the owner, they would not be able to lend it to others, though they would be able to transfer it to other players IF allowed by the original owner. No matter what, the lioness would be returned automatically to the owner's pride in the amount of time the owner specifies
This would help with traditional breeding as well as travelling lionesses, though it may need some tweaking to prevent it from being exploited.

maybes:
The lioness would lose food at a normal rate, but if she dipped into red, a message would pop up for the current caretaker telling them to care for it. Instead of running away, lioness would be sent back to owner's pride
If you don't support, PLEASE say why

Other people's ideas: Lioness would still take up slot in owner's pride
