It is a reference to a biblical character by the name of Daniel (Book of Daniel) who found himself thrown into a lion's den as punishment for disobeying the reigning king, Nebuchadnezzar. Thus the phrase when a person finds him/herself in dire straits or in a very difficult position, they are said to be "in the lion's den"
