Lions are found in a number of places. African lions keep mainly to the African savannas whereas mountain lions are found in wild areas where there are game animals present in the United States and other places in North and South America.
Keeping the population of other animals down at a healthy rate
Yes, lions do live in some African deserts. There is a population of African lions living and thriving in parts of the Namib Desert where they frequently feed on seals they capture on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean.
Africa is the home of most lions in the wild today. There is a very small number of Asian lions in a Gir Forest preserve, but the rest of the lions are in Africa in the wild and that is also the origin of the African species of lion.
Lions are endangered in all places in the world. And there is a very low amount of population of Lions in Ohio.There are no wild lions in the U.S. The African lion is now considered threatened, not endangered. The Asiatic lion is endangered, however.
why are lions leaving the population

The vast majority of lions live on the African savanna. A few are found in the Kalahari and Namib Deserts and another population is found in the Gir Forest in India.
Yes, African Lions can swim in sea, but they only swim if they have to.
The African lion is threatened, not endangered. The population is around 35-40,000.
