10 August - Lion Day

 

Lion Day aims to raise awareness of the majestic hunter, the ultimate feline, the king of the jungle,

On #WorldLionDay, let us resolve to protect & conserve the King of Jungle so that their number increases in the country. These magnificent species are a beauty to behold. We need to also save the natural habitat of the lions to ensure their survival.

Each year on August 10, lion lover’s around the globe use this day to bring awareness to the declining population of lions. Furthermore, we suggest learning about ways to help the preservation of lion habitats, as well.

The lion species, also known as Panthera leo, is one of the largest species on earth. Typically weighing 300 to 550 pounds, the lion can vary from a light buff color to a deep reddish brown color.  Surprisingly, there is also the rare white lion found in the wild. Easily recognized by it’s thick mane, the lion is also muscular and has a loud, deafening roar.  Unfortunately, as majestic lions my seem, they are slowly disappearing.
