What is the total total life span of a lion in years?

Answer 1

15 years in the wild, up to 30 in zoos
The average lifespan of a lion is about 16 years in the wild. In captivity they can live about 26 years.
Average lifespan of a lion in the wild is around 10-14 year. In captive, lion may live more than 20 year with proper care.

Answer 2

15 to 18 years, but they can live 30 years in captivity, so i'd guess with good luck and great hunting,lots of smarts they could live 30 years in the wild to. never underestemate the impossible...

Answer 3

Lions live for around 10-14 years in the wild, while in captivity they can live over 20 years. In the wild, males seldom live longer ten years, as injuries sustained from continuous fighting with rival males greatly reduces their longevity. Though adult lions have no natural predators, evidence suggests that the majority die violently from humans or other lions.[93] This is particularly true of male lions, who, as the main defenders of the pride, are more likely to come into aggressive contact with rival males. In fact, even though a male lion may reach an age of 15 or 16 years if he manages to avoid being ousted by other males, the majority of adult males do not live to be more than 10 years old. This is why the average lifespan of a male lion tends to be significantly less than that of a lioness in the wild. However, members of both sexes can be injured or even killed by other lions when two prides with overlapping territories come into conflict
optimum lipespan range is 10-16years

while their wide range is 20-25 years

Answer 4

Zoo lions can live about 25 years, while lions in the wild live about 15 years.

Lions live for approximately 10-14 years in the wild, while in captivity they can live to 25 years.

15-30 years but its rare for 30

Male lions only live about 10 years in the wild. Females live a little longer. In zoos where they are cared for and cannot fight, lions may live as long as 25 years

20 - 40 years of age

About 16 years in the wild and about 25 to 30 years in captivity.

Depends on the species of lion and where they live. For example captive African Lions can live around 20 years (up to 25) while wild African Lions can live on average for only 13 years.

Lions are known to live to around 10-12 years of age. Only female lions live to that age in the wild. Males usually live to much lesser age because, once they are around 8 years old, younger more powerful males take over their pride and kick them out. Without the pride, the old lions cannot hunt as effectively and usually die soon

Lions live approximately 10-14 years in the wild, and about 20 years in a zoo.

Lifespan: 12 years in the wild, 20 years in captivity. Females typically live a few more years in the wild.

In the wild its about 15 to 18 years.

Lions live for ten to fourteen years in the wild, while in captivity they can live longer than twenty years. In the wild, males seldom live longer than ten years, as injuries sustained from continual fighting with rival males greatly reduce their longevity. Females on the other hand don't fight with one another and hence live longer than the Males.
Lions that live in the wild can live to be around 15 years old. If they are in captivity, they may live twice that long.
in the wild they can live for 10-14 years.
In the wild a lion will live for 8 to 10 years and a lioness can live for 12 to 14 years. In captivity they can live up to 20 years.
10-25 years
a lions life span is 20 years
In captivity lions live an average of 10 years.

Answer 5

In the wild, lionesses usually reach between 12 and 15 years of age. Males do not live as long, usually between 8 and 10, since they will be ousted from the pride by invading males when they begin to age, and have a hard time surviving by themselves without a territory.

In captivity, lions can live to 25 or even older.

Answer 6

In wild 10 - 16 and in captivity 20 - 25 years

I always wonder why they have a greater life span in captivity

Answer 7

Lions live for around 10 to 14 years in the wild, while in captivity they can live over 20 years.

Answer 9
