The Majestic Carnivores
Lions are one of the most iconic species in the animal kingdom. Known for their majestic appearance and role as apex predators, they have been a symbol of strength and courage throughout human history.
They primarily inhabit grasslands and savannas, where they live in social groups known as prides. These prides are structured with a complex hierarchy, often led by a dominant male, with several related females and their offspring.
Their distinctive mane is a notable trait among males, adding to their awe-inspiring presence. Despite their royal stature, lions today face threats from habitat loss and conflict with humans.
