I love big cats, and little cats, in general, but lions are the coolest.
They have organized families, and they care for each other as a group. Sometimes they also show an odd sense of compassion even for rival lions or other animals.
They get a rap for being killers, like most predators, but they’re really mostly not hostile and gentle unless they’re hungry.
With some exceptions, it seems like even in the animal kingdom there are good and bad eggs, but over all, lions are awesome.
I’d like to go on safari sometime, if I could ever afford it, and see them in the wild.
