Description: Although the majority of lions are found in Africa, lions once roamed throughout Europe, Turkey, through the Middle East and into India. Today, the magnificent Asian lion is found only in the Gir Forests of western India. There are not any obvious physical chracteristics between the Asian and African subspecies, although the males in the Gir Forest have smaller manes. Asian lions are extremely susceptible to disease because they are so inbred (there are only 300 left in the wild). That with the fact that a natural disaster in the Gir area could wipe them out make them one of the most endangered species in the world.
This animal is made from the regular Lion. It is just a stat change, but I have also changed the location icon. It is a little harder for it to have babies, and when it does it only has one. The reason for this is because the Asian Lion is so inbred that it does not have as many healthy births, not to mention that reproduction is hindered by the high amount of defective sperm cells in the male.
