They are much more majestic than lions. They should (probably) be called the king of the jungle. I remember reading man eaters of kumaon as a child, it was fascinating and scary. Highly recommended. There was one tiger in the book that was responsible for killing 100s of humans (300 or something, can't remember the exact number). Scary stuff.
- chrisco255 7y agoDon't lions more often inhabit savannas than jungles anyways?
- Sharlin 7y agoSavanna and grassland, yes. Almost never heavily forested area.
- z3phyr 7y agoThe Asiatic lions did inhabit Indian sub tropical forests not 200 years ago.
- manishsharan 7y agoThey still do. Check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gir_National_Park https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gir_National_Park.
- z3phyr 7y agoGir is semi-arid forest, but there was a time when lions lived in subtropical forests (that's what I wanted to say)
