KING OF BEASTS (зверей)

Throughout the history of man, the lion has been the symbol of strength (сила). We say ‘strong as a lion’, or ‘lion-hearted’. But this was not because a lion can defeat (побеждать, наносить поражение) all other animals, but because lions strike terror in man and other beasts.

Lions are members of the cat family. An average (в среднем) grown-up lion is about nine feet long and weighs between 400 and 500 pounds. The males (мужской вид) are larger than the females (женский вид).

The lion’s voice is a roar or a growl (рычание). Unlike other cats, it doesn’t purr and rarely climbs trees. Unlike other cats, too, it can swim in deep water.

Lions live in more or less open country and not in forests. And because they drink once a day, they always live near some water. Lions may live alone or in pairs, or in groups which are known as ‘prides’(гордость).

Lions rest by day and do their hunting by night. The main food supply of lions comes from zebras, gazelles, and antelopes. Sometimes a lion will attack a giraffe, but it won’t attack an elephant, rhinos or hippopotamus. When a lion isn’t hungry, he pays no attention to other animals.
