Lions actually exist in 26 different African countries but the number one country with the highest numbers of lions in the wild is Tanzania. Some scientists expect the number to be around 15,000 wild lions. The Serengeti is home to one of the largest lion populations in Tanzania with about 3,000 lions.
The symbol of Lion is mostly associated with prominence, majesty, strength, courage, justice, and military might. Lions are also symbols of kingly power and might. The lioness on the other hand is commonly related to the Great Mother and protection.
