Scientists have found that lions, whose mane has a dark color, endure heat worse. However, these males have a more developed reproductive ability.

The lion holds the record for shoulder height among all felines.

Lions live in prides of up to 15 individuals. The main duty of the males is to protect the territory, while the females take care of the offspring and hunt. At the same time, males are the first to satisfy their hunger after a successful hunt.
