There are no black lions. The only big cats that occasionally produce a melanistic (black) individual are leopards and jaguars which are collectively known as black panthers.

As of last update in January 2022, there are no known instances of black lions. Lions typically have tawny-colored fur, though variations in color, such as melanism (resulting in a black appearance), have been observed in other big cat species like leopards. However, no verified reports of black lions exist in the wild or captivity. If there were any new developments or discoveries since then, I wouldn't be aware of them.

Why are there white lions and not black lions?

White lions have been selectively bread to have little pigment in their fur. The pigment in a lion's fur is predominantly yellow/brown. By contrast lions have little black pigment, if any, and so it is impossible to select for black pigment in breeding.
