Gondwana Lion

The Gondwana Lion is a large species of lion that lives in the savannah plains on the continent of Gondwana on Gaia.

It is the biggest and most powerful apex predator on Gondwana, as it hunted a lot of large, defensive prey, ranging from Plains Bonebashers to Gondwana Rajaphants. Gondwana Lions also attained great sizes, with males being up to 3.05 meters (10 feet tall) and females being 3.03 meters (9 feet tall). When it comes to prides, the oldest of the pride gets to be the leader. However, when the leader dies, the second oldest gets to take his place, or when the leader has an eldest child, then they will be next in line, and so on and so forth. Another thing unlike the African Lion is that the males go hunting for food while the females stay behind with the cubs, while on Earth with the African Lion it is reverse. The Gondwana Lion also has longer and more powerful front teeth and claws than the African Lion, helping it kill prey easier. Usually, the males always stick together as a team when hunting, because to them, “friendship always helps go through survival”. When killing prey, the younger males head for random parts of the body to bite and scratch the prey, while the old male heads for the windpipe.

Then when the prey is killed, the old male roars loudly, which means he is calling for the females and cubs to come and join the pride feast, and then eat the prey to a skeleton, with no organs or flesh left in sight. As their Earth cousins only eat 70% of a carcass, Gondwana Lions eat 99.5%, however, dung is one thing a Gondwana Lion can’t stomach, so they simply just throw it away. Their teeth are also sharp enough to crush bones, which some males do to scratch against their canines, making their teeth sharper and also being ready to hunt and kill.
