By the age of three male lions can leave their prides and create a new one. When a female lion is four years old, they can have up to six baby cubs. But usually, they have 3 or 4. A male lion and a female lion’s life span are different. Males live up to 16 years but they usually live to 10 or 12 years. Female lions can live up to 18 years but, usually live to 12 or 13 years. You can tell after reading this people live longer than lions.
Where do lions live?
Most lions live in the grassy plains of Africa. However Mountain lions can be found in North America and South America. Lions also can be found in India. Lions are found in groups called a pride. A pride may include as many as seven adult males and many more females and cubes- up to 40 lions in all. Lions stay with their pride almost their whole life. But, males do not stay with their pride their whole life. Males stay with their pride for several years. Where lions live most of the time it is warm. However in India, sometimes it will be cold. In Africa, where most lions live there is no trees or bushes, just grass.
Lions crazy adaptions
Lions have many features that help them survive. One unique feature about a lion is they have manes which help them protect themselves. If you bite a lion’s necks it is like biting a giant mattress because it is thick and hairy. Lions survive because of their strength and size. They are known as the king of the jungle.
Lions have many body parts, including their manes, tail, head, toe, and canines. A lion’s mane is important to them because if a lion got in a fight their mane protects them because their mane is very strong and powerful. Their canines (teeth) help them because their teeth rip their prey so they can eat them.
