The phrase "king of the jungle" does not refer to dominance based on strength. Lions are symbolically associated with being the king due to their social structure and mane that signifies power. Additionally, lions are native to the African savannahs, not the jungle, but the phrase is based on metaphorical imagery rather than literal meaning.
