Simha, or Lion, is a large carnivorous mammal known for its strength and majestic appearance. It belongs to the family Felidae and is often referred to as the "king of the jungle." Lions are social animals that live in groups called prides, which typically consist of related females, their cubs, and a few males. They are primarily found in Africa, with a small population in the Asiatic Lion subspecies located in India. Lions are recognized for their distinctive manes, which vary in color and size among males. They are apex predators, primarily hunting large herbivores such as zebras and wildebeests. Lions communicate through vocalizations, including roars, which can be heard over long distances. Their conservation status is vulnerable due to habitat loss and human-wildlife conflict.
