Did You Know? A lion's roar is so powerful it can be heard from 8 kilometers away! Lions are the only cats that live in groups, called prides, which can have up to 30 lions. Unlike most cats, lions love the water and are actually good swimmers. Male lions spend most of their time resting — up to 20 hours a day — while female lions do most of the hunting for the pride.
