Because of the life in the steppe region near Ruaha National Park, the Barabaig tribe lived mainly on hunting and cattle breeding. Therefore, in the culture of this tribe, the wealth of an individual or a family is judged by how many animals there are. At the same time, judging the strength of men depends on how well he is hunting.

Even in the history, the traditional culture of the Barabaig tribe forced men to fight lions with at least once to flirt with girls. Thanks to the fights with 'grassland warlords' , many men were rewarded with the most beautiful cattle and women. However, many people also have to die.

So far, because the lion has been greatly reduced in numbers and influenced by civilization, many people of the Barabaig clan have abandoned the tradition of "fighting a lion to have a right to befriend ". At the same time, the propaganda of the authorities also helps people realize the danger.

However, in some remote villages, this tradition remains the same. Even before the flirtatious festival was held, only men who were recorded as having wicked or killed lions could attend to find their wives.
