Lions are Africa's apex predators and the only truly social cats, living in family groups called prides. Their iconic manes serve both as a visual status symbol among males and as protection during territorial fights. Despite their fearsome reputation, wild lions today face habitat loss and shrinking populations, making them increasingly dependent on conservation efforts across the continent.
