Beautiful photo of a male lion racing across the grassland. He  probably weighs around 500 lbs and is running at a speed of 50 mph. A magnificent animal. Until 10,000 years ago the lion was the most common animal on Earth. That's certainly not true today. Lions live in groups that are called prides. Each pride has their "territory" (about 100 square miles). Lions do not allow other meat-eating animals to hunt in their territory. Exclusive Wall Street Gifts photo 16 x 20
