Panthera leo persica
The Asiatic Lion is a subspecies which exists as an isolated population in the Western state of India - Gujarat. These species represent a great conservation success story as their numbers have surged from less than a dozen individuals to over 500 in a century due to ceaseless efforts put in by local communities and authorities.
