Leões

Leões, or lions, are large, powerful feline predators known for their strength, social structure, and role as apex predators in their ecosystems. They typically live in groups called prides, which consist of related females, their offspring, and a few males. Lions are primarily carnivorous, hunting large herbivores like zebras and wildebeests. They are native to Africa, with a small population in India. Recognized for their iconic manes and majestic presence, lions symbolize strength and courage in many cultures. They play a vital role in maintaining the balance of their environment by regulating prey populations.
