Today for Fun Friday I'm going to tell you about the lion roar.The lion is one of the biggest cats known to man coming in second place compared to the tiger it can weigh up to 550 pounds and grow up to 8ft long and 4ft high.The lion can live up to 10 to 14 years in the wild but can live up 20 years in captivity and why do they live longer in captivity you may ask.......Because in the wild they're always fighting ruining there chances of living long while in captivity they learn to mind each other instead of killing each other.The lion is a carnivore and even so the lion does not do any of the hunting the lioness does.They hunt in packs to take down the big prey like buffalo,water buffalo,baby giraffes,and even baby and full grown elephants and in return for working there fur off getting food for the males the males always eat first.The lion is not just found in Africa you know, it is also found in western Asia, southern Europe,plus southern Asia.Thats my report on the lion.The End.
