    I'm not a child, but I learned something new here today, too. I didn't realize tigers are larger than lions. Even seeing them in the zoo, I always thought the king of the jungle was also the largest.

    My cats, although distant relatives of the lion, maintain the 20 hours a day of sleep. (Sure seems like it, anyway!)

    Happy weekend!

      Dear Susan, lion looks larger but is lighter than tiger that's why it is the second largest cat.Yes, cats sleep most of the time, good for them :)
      Thank you very much for your kind visit, have a lovely Saturday :)

    Very informative post, thanks for sharing. I would like to add one point, Lion won't hunt for food and kill other animals unless otherwise he is really hungry.
