Lions Animals Biography
source(google.com.pk)It's always exciting seeing lions in the wild. If you're lucky, they'll be close enough to photograph.
Whenever I return from an African safari with one or two reasonable lion pictures, I count myself lucky as these magnificent predators are often spotted only in the distance. Even when you do see them at close range, there's a good chance they'll be fast asleep!
This gallery of lion images was taken in South Africa (mainly Kruger National Park) and Botswana.

These lions were photographed at the Denver Zoo. A lion and two and lionesses are shown in this series of lion pics. The male has a thick mane which is yellowish at the roots with black tips. These are South African Lions whose native habitat is in sub-saharan Africa. African lions are not listed as endangered, but their habitat is shrinking. See the Defenders of Wildlife Lions Page for more information on protecting lions in the wild.

Lionesses usually hunt for the pride which is probably why they are more aggressive by nature. However, the male lion will always take precedence at the kill, dragging the prey in to the shade, then gorging himself before the females and cubs begin to eat.
The male lion usually stays and watches its young while waiting for the lionesses to return from the hunt. Typically, several lionesses work together and encircle the herd from different points. Once they have closed with a herd, they usually target the closest prey. The attack is short and powerful; they attempt to catch the victim with a fast rush and final leap. The prey usually is killed by strangulation, which can cause cerebral ischemia or asphyxia (which results in hypoxemic, or "general", hypoxia). The prey also may be killed by the lion enclosing the animal's mouth and nostrils in its jaws which would also result in asphyxia. Smaller prey, though, may simply be killed by a swipe of a lion's paw.
However, lions are not particularly known for their stamina—for instance, a lioness' heart makes up only 0.57 percent of her body weight (a male's is about 0.45 percent of his body weight), whereas a hyena's heart is close to 1 percent of its body weight. Therefore, they only run fast in short bursts, and need to be close to their prey before starting the attack. They take advantage of factors that reduce visibility; many kills take place near some form of cover or at night. They sneak up to the victim until they reach a distance of around 30 metres (98 ft) or less.

However, Creative Commons is actually a non-profit organization based in California, and there are varying levels of freedom associated with media submitted. Check this infographic about how to correctly attribute Creative Commons.
There are two attributions to look out for if you're using images for business needs.
