Lion

·       The lion’s habitat should be 50’x50’ and should have about a 10-20 gallon watering hole for bathing and drinking.  Some trees are necessary for shade and the grass should be tall.  If you fill the watering hole with fish the lion may grow to eat them as well.

·       A lion can eat anywhere from 30-50 lbs of meat in a day depending on the size and how active the lion is.  Males will eat more than females.

·       Lion cubs weigh 2-4lbs but grow up to 416 lbs for a male, and 276 lbs for females.

·       The cubs will open their eyes after 3-11 days, walk after 10-15 days, and learn to run after a month.  The cubs will require a bottle for up to 7-10 months old

·       Lions are very aggressive and there may be an anti-aggression shot to calm them down because they are related to domestic cats.  There is no guarantee that it’ll work, but if you want an animal to interact with you may want to look into this.

·       Females become sexually mature at age 4 years old, while males are mature at 5.
