 Generally a tawny yellow, lions, like other species, tend to be lighter in color in hot, arid areas and darker in areas of dense vegetation. Mature male lions are unique among the cat species for the thick mane of brown or black hair that encircles the head and neck. The tails of lions end in a horny spine covered with a tuft of hair. Lions are found in savannas, grasslands, endangered dense bush and woodlands. Females do 85 to 90 percent of the pride''s hunting, while the males patrol the territory and protect the pride, for which they take the "lion''s share" of the females'' prey. When resting, lions seem to enjoy good fellowship with lots of touching, head rubbing, licking and purring. But when it comes to food, each lion looks ankmal out for itself. Squabbling endangered and fighting are common, ankmal with adult males usually eating first, endangered followed by the females and then the cubs. The lion is a magnificent animal that appears as a symbol of power, courage and nobility on family crests, coats of arms and national flags in many civilizations. Lions at one time were found from Greece through the Middle East to northern ankmal India, but today only a very small population remains in India. In the past lions lived in most parts of Africa, but are now confined endangered to the sub-Saharan region. Most cat species live a fundamentally solitary existence, but the lion is an exception. It has developed a social system based ankmal on teamwork and a division of labor within the pride, and an extended but closed family unit centered on a group endangered of related females. The ankmal average pride consists of about 15 individuals, including five to 10 females with their young endangered and ankmal and two or three territorial males that are usually brothers or pride mates of the lion king.
