Why is World Lion Day important?
- Lions are facing huge threat. The population of African lions, for example, has dropped by 43% since 200.
- Lions are exploited. Thousands of lions are farmed around the world for their bones and other body parts.
- Lions have empathy. Lions are social animals and they are able to empathise with other members of their pride.
- Lions are intelligent. Like many other animals, lions are able to solve puzzles to obtain food.
I haven't written about Lion Day before and that surprises me, but if you're in a library looking for lion books there are lots to choose from. Look here for ideas and then go looking.
