Cave lions were the only type of lions that lived in Europe and outside of Africa. They were very large creatures who typically lived in caves, hence the name. They originated in Europe 700,000 years ago and became extinct only about 10,000 years ago.

what do lions live on?

Lions that live in Africa are called African lions. Those that live in India are called Asiatic lions. These lions may go by different names, but there is only one species, or kind, of lion. Thousands of years ago, lions could be found over much of the world. They lived in Africa, Europe, Asia, and even North and South America. Lions probably disappeared from many regions when forests grew too thick, their prey became extinct, and humans overhunted them. Today, the only lions that live outside of Africa are found in one area of India.While lions used to be found in Africa, Europe and Asia, today they are only found in Africa.
