The Lion

The lion, often called the “King of the Beasts,” is the ultimate symbol of power, courage, and unity. Found primarily in Africa’s savannahs, lions live in prides—a social structure unique among big cats. This collaboration allows them to hunt large prey like zebras and buffalo with remarkable teamwork and strategy.

Lions play a critical role in maintaining the savannah’s ecological balance by regulating prey populations. However, they face significant threats from habitat loss, poaching, and human conflict. Conservation programs focused on protecting lions and their habitats are essential to preserving these majestic animals and the ecosystems they help sustain.
