Why does a lion have heavily muscled fore limbs and shoulders?
To catch their prey more efficiently. Lions hunt large prey, some of which is much larger than they are. Heavily muscled forelimbs and shoulders add strength for capturing large prey, like wildebeest and Cape buffalo. To do that safely, they have to be able to hold it securely while they kill it, which takes a minute, because they kill by asphyxiation. Their muscular forelimbs serve many purposes, but the main reason is so they can grab on to their prey and get them onto the ground.
