Asian lions once prowled from the Middle East to India. Now, only 200 to 260 of these magnificent animals survive in the wild. The Gir Forest's dry teak woods were once a royal hunting ground.
Survival of the Asian lion is endangered. The Asian lion once occurred in southeast Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and India.
