Background Info For Lion:

The Lion is the second largest of the big cats and is large and powerfully built.  Many call the lion the king of the beasts and almost all know of this wild animal.  It is a well–muscled cat with a long body, short legs and a large head. The world’s most social felines, lions roam the savannas and grasslands of the African continent, hunting cooperatively and raising cubs in prides.
