Amazing Facts About Lions [Video]

Narrated in a highly entertaining manner, this three and a half minute video tells us pretty much all there is to know about African lions and their life in the wild, plus some very interesting facts most people have no idea about.

Thus, it seems that a lion's roar can be heard from as much as five miles (8.5 kilometers) away.

One other impressive piece of information is that lion cubs give up and milk and sink their teeth in meat as soon as they reach the age of just three months.

One funny thing is that, although lions are fully capable of taking down large prey such as zebras, these big cats have some issues when it comes to feasting on unusual dishes such as ostrich eggs.

Seeing how these animals have lost most of their natural habitat as a result of human activities, the case is also made that effective conservation programs need be implemented as soon as possible.
