Description

When: October 27, 2019

Where: Safaripark Beekse Bergen Hilvarenbeek, The Netherlands

The illusive African Lion male is awake. Well, he is - he is still sleepy and ready to fall back asleep but you can only yawn if you are in fact awake

Species: African Lion (Afrikaanse leeuw)

Latin name: Panthera Leo

Originates from Africa and West Asia.

Current status: Vulnerable

Did you know:

…It is the second-largest living Cat, after the Tiger, but the tallest – at the shoulder – of all living cats.

…Lions are the only members of the Cat family to display obvious sexual dimorphism, meaning that males and females look distinctly different.

…Lions in captivity tend to be larger than Lions in the wild.
