African Lion

Panthera leo

Unlike other cats, lions are social animals that are specially adapted for communal life in the pride. Lions use their mighty roar for communication. Both male and female pride members keep track of one another by roaring. A lion’s roar is so powerful it can be heard up to 3 miles away.
