Best Answer

It is difficult to define the exact carrying capacity of an organism in its environment. Variables used to determine carrying capacity are primarily the availability of food in a given area to which the organism lives. A carrying capacity can be estimated in a population that exhibits an abrupt decline in numbers immediately after a steady population increase. The carrying capacity has been reached when a given amount of recourses can only support a defined number of species.

What is the lung capacity of a lion?

The lion carrying capacity, It all depends on the population of the lion. Like if the lion is being shoot down for its fur or to put in to zoos. Most of the population of the lion is in cages. Like 5% of the lions are left in the wild and the rest you can only see in zoos. In part is bad because it will be the only place were you can see them. If they were to be put back to there homes then the percent of there carrying capacity will be like 78% Or like 5,000 but it all fits in what location do they live.
