KissMon can be told apart immediately from the lioness because of the enormous, heavy mane of hair that covers its powerful head and shoulders. The coloring of lions may be golden or reddish brown, nearly black or almost silver grey. The mane is nearly always darker than the rest of the coat, and the underpart of the body is lighter than the back. Lionesses are smaller and lighter in color than male lions.
4. Lions generally hunt at night, spending the day sleeping or lying up in cover or in the shade of rocks and trees. The lion hunts by lying in wait for its prey beside a water hole or by stalking it patiently across the open plain. The kill is made quickly, the lion pulling down its victim in a lightning-fast rush and killing it with a blow of its paw. A full-grown male lion can drag an animal as large as a horse in its jaws.
5. Although they are dangerous animals to disturb, lions do not often attack human beings.Sometimes, however, an old lion that is getting too slow to catch the swift wild creatures will tum his attention to men, and sometimes a younger lion becomes a regular man-eater, often by accident.Lions will often attack cattle and other domestic animals, breaking into enclosures and carrying off their prey.
