Lion
A male lion (Panthera leo) lying down in Namibia. One of the four "big cats" in the genus Panthera, the lion is the second largest cat, after the tiger. Males weigh between 150-250 kg (330-550 lb), and are easily recognizable by their manes. Though they were once found throughout much of Africa, Asia and Europe, lions presently exist in the wild only in Africa and India.Photo credit: yaaaay
