Description of the tittle

Lions can easily pull down and kill prey thanks to their muscular, compact bodies, powerful forelegs,teeth, and jaws. Adult males have shaggy manes that range in colour from blond to reddish-brown to black, and their coats are yellow-gold. Age, genetics, and hormones are likely to influence the length and colour of a lion's mane. As lion get older, the light markings on their coats vanish. 

Only professionals can distinguish between lion and tiger bodies without their coats since they are so similar. 

Size

Lions stand between 3.5 and 4 feet (1 and 1.2 meters) tall at the shoulder. Makes grow to length of 10 feet (3 meters) and have a 2 to 3 foot (60 to 91 centimeter) tail. They are 330 to 550 pounds in weight (150 to 250 kilograms). Females are a little bit smaller and reach lengths of 9 feet (2.7 metres), weighing between 265 and 394 pounds. 

The second-largest cat species in the world is the lion. 

The tiger is the only cat that is largest than a lion. A Lion's length from the top of its head to the end of its tail can reach about 10 feet, and it's shoulder height can reach 4 feet. Females are smaller and lighter than males, and their weight ranges from 250 to 550.

In a pride (family group), most of the hunting is done by the female lions. If they're jointly pursuing larger animals, males will occasionally join us. A group of lions will stalk it's victim from several angles in order to surround them. 

While males are primarily responsible for reproduction and guarding the pride against invading males, females also hunt and safeguard  the territory and cubs. Moreover, men sleep more than women do. It follows that female lions virtually control everything.

These so-called “kings of the jungle”  Don't really reside there. The majority of lions are found in the savannah, plains, and grasslands of sub - Saharan Africa. 

Over time, lions have changed to fit their environments. For instance, a Lion's tan coat aids him to blend in with the savannah and desert, and desert - dwelling lions typically have shorter manes to help them stay cool. 

There is one population of lions that does reside in the forest; it is in Western India's Gir Forest National Park. 

Lions live in prides

The majority of the cats, both wild and domestic, hunt alone, but lions are actually incredibly gregarious creatures. A dominant male, females, and their pups, as well as two to three other males, make form lion prides, which can number up to roughly 40 lions. 

Males are typically compelled to leave their birth pride between the ages of 2 and 4 in order to avoid competing with the Price's dominant male, while females typically stay in the pride they were born into. The males will then band together and look for a pride to oust.
