A lion is a strong and fierce animal that hunts and kills other animals. It has specific adaptive features that help it in hunting:

● Lions are nocturnal, i.e. they hunt at night that enables them to sneak up on their prey.

● Its light brown colored body helps it to hide in dry grasslands and easily hunt for a prey – camouflage

● The eyes situated in front of the face enables it locate its prey easily.

● It has long and sharp claws in its front legs that can be withdrawn inside the toes. The claws help the lion to attack its prey.

● A lion’s tongue is rough enough to peel off the skin of its prey.
