Depends on which MGM lion you are referring to. There have been 5 all in all. The present day one. which I am fairly sure you refer to, was named Leo and he is buried in New Jersey. The one you see roaring at te start of Tom and Jerry and much more is named Volney
Since 1924 (when the studio was formed by the merger of Samuel Goldwyn's studio with Marcus Loew's Metro Pictures and Louis B. Mayer's company), there have been around five different lions used for the MGM logo, including Tanner, and Leo, the current (fifth) lion. Tanner was used on all Technicolor films and MGM Cartoons (including the Tom and Jerry series), and in use on the studio logo for 22 years (Leo has been in use since 1957, a total of 52 years and counting).
His name was Leo. And then Slats, Jackie, Tanner and George
Metro Goldwyn Mayer -- MGM -- used a roaring lion in their logo.

One person made a video of the MGM lion doing that once. One person also said that the MGM lion isn't roaring, it was more like "I'm in the mood. Have food and conflict and don't bother me." Noise.
Leo The LION!!
The bronze MGM Grand lion statue above the entrance was placed there in 1998. At 45 feet on a 25 foot pedestal and weighing 50 tons, the MGM Grand lion is the largest bronze statue in the United States of America.
