The people who don't accept the fact/quote "Lion is the king of the jungle".. This is the living proof, the Indian or Asiatic lions do live in the Jungle.. The word Jungle itself is derived from the Sanskrit word Jungla and It's not an English word.. Hope this helps!
@@Hayy-wann Yup.. However, that's not the only reason.. The lion actually lives the king's life.. The lion lives in pride.. One dominant male along with one or two adult males, few lionesses and cubs.. Females usually do the hunting.. Males just sleep, eat, mate repeat.. Rarely Male lions do hunting.. However, they help lionesses to take down huge prey like elephants, giraffes, wild buffalos.. They patrol their territories and protect their cubs from the male lions of other pride and from the nomadic male lions.. Doesn't it seem like the life of a human king??? I believe these qualities made the people call the Lion the king of the jungle whereas Tiger is a solitary animal.. It doesn't qualify even if it's stronger, more agile and intelligent than Lions.. Their way of life matters.. Therefore Lion qualifies over tigers in this context..
Fun fact: Jungle just means any area that has a large amount of vegetation and wild animals It was the Europeans who shortened the word's meaning to just Tropical Forests
Ya that back flip hair, skinny body and overall aesthetic I was thinking about that while I was editing the video and besides kovu, zira and her clan all look like Asiatic lions.
@@gabrielsadaraka494 all research about them but their uniqueness doesn't classify them as a subspecies and am only talking about the subspecies of these big cats.
The Lion (Panthera leo) is a big cat native to both Africa and Asia, it is one of the only two surviving species of the genus Panthera, the other being the Leopard (Panthera pardus), it is also known for being the second largest cat species in the world alive today, there are twelve recognized subspecies of lion, only seven of which are alive today, the most basal of the twelve lion subspecies is the †European Lion (Panthera leo fossilis), then followed by the split between two clades, the Panthera leo persica group (Asiatic Lions) and the Panthera leo leo group (African Lions), the former has two recognized subspecies being the Indian Lion (Panthera leo persica) and the †Sri Lanka Lion (Panthera leo sinhaleyus) while the latter has nine recognized subspecies being the †Egyptian Lion (Panthera leo aegyptiaca), the †Barbary Lion (Panthera leo leo), the West African Lion (Panthera leo senegalensis), the Congo Lion (Panthera leo azandica), the Nubian Lion (Panthera leo nubica), the Ethiopian Lion (Panthera leo roosevelti), the Katanga Lion (Panthera leo bleyenberghi), the Transvaal Lion (Panthera leo krugeri), and the †Cape Lion (Panthera leo melanochaita).
Thanks for sharing am impressed by your zoological knowledge, never thought there existed an Egyptian lion subspecies but ave learned alot reading your comment Thanks for sharing.
@@indyreno2933 Wow thanks for sharing but good thing is that their immotolized in Egyptian statues and the sphinxes but what's the reason for their extinction.
Their are actually only considered to be 2 Sub-species! The Southern Lion of East and South Africa ( _Panthera leo melanochaita_ meaning; Black maned Lion Panther) And the Northern lion of Central, and West Africa, and India ( _Panthera leo leo_ meaning; Panther lion lion) The Indian lion is actually the same animal as the now extinct Barbary lion!
@@The_Dum_Reptile69420, nope, the Lion (Panthera leo) originated exclusively from Europe, therefore, there are twelve valid lion subspecies, with the most basal of the twelve lion subspecies being the †European Lion (Panthera leo fossilis), then followed by the split between two clades, which are the Panthera leo persica group (Asiatic Lions) and the Panthera leo leo group (African Lions) with the former containing the Indian Lion (Panthera leo persica) and the †Sri Lanka Lion (Panthera leo sinhaleyus) and the latter containing the †Egyptian Lion (Panthera leo aegyptiaca), the †Barbary Lion (Panthera leo leo), the West African Lion (Panthera leo senegalensis), the Congo Lion (Panthera leo azandica), the Nubian Lion (Panthera leo nubica), the Ethiopian Lion (Panthera leo roosevelti), the Katanga Lion (Panthera leo bleyenberghi), the Transvaal Lion (Panthera leo krugeri), and the †Cape Lion (Panthera leo melanochaita).
The Asiatic lion looks like Scar Disney should use that kind of lion in the live action Lion King movies. 2:11
Ya but the cji lions don't even look like actual African lions to begin with but they should use the asiatic lion for scar.
I like your poetic commentary...
Thanks
but not anymore, my poetic commentary are getting less views than my straightforward commentary.

It seems in the Lion king movie they portrayed the Indian Lion "The Scar" as a villain.. 🤔

The recently extinct egyptian lion (Panthera leo aegyptiaca) is considered the most basal of all the lion subspecies endemic to Africa.
