Asiatic Lion: The King of the Jungle The Asiatic lion, smaller but no less majestic than its African cousin, is a rare gem in our zoo’s collection. Found only in the Gir Forest of India, this lion is a symbol of resilience and strength, having survived near-extinction in the wild. Our Asiatic lion captivates visitors with its regal appearance and powerful presence. Whether lounging in the sun or roaring to mark its territory, this magnificent animal embodies the essence of the wild. Educational talks highlight the conservation efforts that have saved this species and the ongoing work to protect its natural habitat. Visiting the Asiatic lion is a chance to connect with one of the rarest and most awe-inspiring big cats on the planet.
