Say hello to the Lion...our 2023 featured animal.
African Lions are the second largest big cat after the Tiger and typically live in groups of 10 - 15 called prides. In the 1940s, there was an estimated wild population of 450,000 African lions, estimates are now closer to 20,000. Lions are currently listed as “vulnerable” on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species.
Wild African Lion numbers have reduced from hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands in the last few decades. Once found throughout the vast African continent, they are now in just a handful of protected ranges remaining in Southern and Eastern Africa. Their main threats are disease spread by domestic animals like dogs, poaching and human-wildlife conflict.
