Lion Images

This gallery has a selection of Lions, in the wild and from conservation projects, from Tanzania and Zimbabwe.

Despite its 'King of the Jungle' image, the lion is now officially listed as 'vulnerable', meaning it's likely to become endangered in the future. Although the cause of its decline is not well understood, habitat loss and conflicts with humans are obvious concerns.
