The main threat facing African lions in the wild is being killed as part of organised hunts. African lions are mostly found in sub-Saharan Africa.
They used to be found all over Africa but now they have mostly disappeared from North Africa and are at risk of extinction in West Africa. Lions live in savannahs and grasslands, where some cover and plenty of water can be found.
If lions are your favourite animal you can adopt a lion for a one off payment that includes a cuddly lion toy, an adoption certificate, a lion fact sheet and the name of the adopter displayed at the lion enclosure. Lions hunt for food every few days. They will feed from their kill and then rest until they hunt again.
They usually kill medium sized mammals, such as zebra, deer and wildebeest. Soulful Stare, Lewa Series, No. Please wait up to a minute while we process your order. Thank you.

Rory Young, a Safari Guide, has this to say:. If you have something in your hand then throw it at the lion.
Even if the lion charges you do not run. Believe me this can be extremely intimidating. They charge at 80 km per hour and the roaring is deafening. If you have frozen and then lion is not approaching but not leaving either then start to back slowly away.
If it starts to move then freeze immediately.
