Episode 339: Asiatic Lions Surviving - a podcast by All Creatures Podcast

When most think of lions, their thoughts turn to the African plains with a pride of lions talking their prey. Yet, most are unware that lions once roamed most of southwestern Asia and even in parts of Europe. While these Asiatic (sub-European) lions are mostly extinct in much of their former range, in one area of India they have survived and now thrive. Once down to maybe a dozen lions left, thanks to focused efforts from India's government and conservation organizations, the Asiatic Lion is making a comeback. While they are still classified as "Endangered," they now number near 700 animals left, many in the wild. This is their story and how they have made a comeback.
