As of recent estimates, there are approximately 20,000 to 25,000 lions in Africa, while the African elephant population is estimated to be around 400,000 to 600,000. This means that elephants outnumber lions by a significant margin, roughly 20 to 30 times more elephants than lions. The populations of both species are threatened by habitat loss and poaching, but elephants face more severe declines, especially in certain regions.

What continents 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.
