9. LION ADAPTATIONS

10. Lion Adaptations
One of the most visible adaptations on many animals, sharp teeth help an animal eat meat (Caduto, M. & Bruchac, J. 1991). Found primarily on meat-eating animals, or carnivores, sharp teeth are used mainly for the tearing and chewing of an animal's prey.

11. Lion Adaptations
Rather than developing the dull teeth of plant-eaters, or herbivores, carnivores rely on their sharp teeth to allow them to eat and survive (DeGolia, J. & Zarki J. 1987). Sharp teeth can serve another purpose: efense. In some animals, bearing a large set of sharp teeth can show power or fear.

12. Adaptation Applications: Lions
Why are the eyes of a lion set in front of the head rather than on the sides?
Answer: Eyes in front of the head allow for depth perception and ability to judge distances when hunting (Henley, T. 1989).

13. What is the purpose of the mane on a male lion
What is the purpose of the mane on a male lion? What is the reason for the lion’s color?
A thick mane helps the male to appear larger and serves as protection for the throat. The tawny brown coat color camouflages the animal and young among vegetation.
