  Lion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lions are predatory carnivores who live in family groups, called prides, consisting of related females, their cubs of both sexes, and one or more unrelated males who mate with the adult females.
Lions are recurring symbols in the coat of arms of royalty and chivalry.
Male lions exist largely to defend the pride; excellent fighters (the mane on lions is an evolutionary adaptation to fighting; the mane absorbs bites and scratches that might otherwise be lethal), but due to their large size and difficulty at concealment, they are ineffective predators.

In the case of lions, a good habitat provides females with suitable, hidden areas where their young cubs will be safe from new males that may take over the pride and from leopards and hyenas that prey on the cubs.
Initially lions were blamed for the decrease but it soon became evident that it was the effect of the high rainfall and long grass that played an important role in suppressing these animal populations.
The lion database that is created from the sightings will then be used together with the maps to determine broad-scale ecological patterns, such as lion group composition or the density of females in the different habitat types.

Although studies have been done relating lion biology to prey biomass and rainfall, none have analyzed lion demography in terms of the effect of variability in rainfall.
There was also the advantage of a large database of lion records (about 60 000) collected over an extended period which added the aspect of a long time scale to the project.

 IOL: National speaker group attends lion trial
Police brought the lion murder trial proceedings in the Phalaborwa circuit court to a halt on Friday as they ushered out members of the public to make space in the gallery for a delegation of Speakers of the national and provincial governments.
The disturbance forced judge George Maluleke, hearing the case with assessors Kate Choshi and Elphus Seemela, to adjourn the case for five minutes during the cross-examination of forensic criminologist Dr Irma Lauschange to enable the police to escort in National Assembly Speaker Baleka Mbethe, her deputy Mahlangu Nkabinde and provincial Speakers.
Denying that the Speakers' attendance at the trial was merely a political gesture, Mbethe said there would always be people who made such accusations, but these would not stop the Speakers from expressing their views.
