What is a lion's domain?

Answer 1

There are two separate subspecies of lions: the African and Asian lion. The African lion's former range included all of Africa, even within the Sahara desert. Now, they live in the savannas and forests south of the Sahara desert. The Asian lion (Panthera Leo persica) lives in the Gir Forest of India. There are about 200 Asian lions remaining there, all that is left of what was a thriving lion population that was once widespread all over southwest Asia. They were hunted to extinction elsewhere, and the Gir forest, what used to be a sultan's game park, is the only place they have found refuge.

In regards to the taxonomic domain, lions are mammals, and all mammals belong to the taxonomic domain of Eukarya, which are characterised by having cells with nuclei. Eukarya covers all organisms in the Kingdom Animalia, as well as the Kingdoms Plantae, Fungi and Protista.

Answer 2

A lion's domain is typically a savanna or grassland habitat where they have ample space to roam and hunt for prey. They establish territories to mark their ownership and defend them from intruders, often related to pride hierarchy and availability of resources. Lions rely on these domains for survival, as they need access to sufficient food, water, and shelter to thrive.
