Description
A lion is a large, muscular cat characterized by its tawny-yellow coat, strong body, and distinctive mane on adult males. Males have a shaggy mane around their head, neck, and shoulders that varies in color and can signal dominance. Females (lionesses) are more slender and lack manes. Both sexes have a short, rounded head, strong jaws and teeth for hunting, and a dark tuft at the end of their tails.
