Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence has arrived to stay in the jungle as well. Its ability to process data, anticipate events, and provide evidence-based solutions makes it an indispensable tool in lion protection. From real-time monitoring to interpreting animal language, AI is transforming the way we care for these magnificent predators. At 1A.App, we continue to explore the power of these technologies, convinced that the future of conservation will be intelligent, ethical, and deeply connected to wildlife.

AI is changing the way we protect lions and their environment. Today, we can better understand their movements, anticipate threats, and design more effective conservation strategies, all thanks to smart technologies that process thousands of data points in seconds. At 1A.App, we believe that combining science, technology, and a love for nature is the key to preserving these majestic creatures for future generations.

Breeds or Subspecies?

Lions are generally classified not by “breeds,” but rather by subspecies, which differ in terms of their geographical location, physical characteristics, and some unique behaviours. Moreover, lion conservation is crucial, as many subspecies are threatened by habitat loss, poaching, and conflicts with humans. Here are some of the most well-known subspecies:

African Lion

Found primarily in sub-Saharan Africa, although a small remnant population exists in India (known as Asiatic lions). They have a thick and dark mane, which is possibly the most recognisable of all lion subspecies. They live in socially structured prides, consisting of related females, their offspring, and one or more adult males.

Asiatic Lion

Only found in the Gir Forest National Park in Gujarat, India. They have a less dense mane compared to their African counterparts and usually possess a longitudinal skin fold along their belly. Their prides are generally smaller, and males often spend more time alone or in small groups of males.

Barbary or Atlas Lion

This subspecies is currently extinct in the wild and only exists in captivity. They were known for their extremely large bodies and long, dense manes, often extending over the belly and back. Although difficult to confirm, it’s believed they exhibited similar behaviours to other lions, living in prides and hunting in groups.

West African Lion

Found in West Africa, specifically in countries like Senegal, Nigeria, and surrounding regions. They are generally smaller than the lions of East and Southern Africa. Their mane also tends to be less dense. Adapted to living in savannahs, forests, and scrub areas, these lions have hunting and social habits similar to other African lions, but their prides are often smaller due to the limited availability of prey.

Kruger Lion

This subspecies is primarily found in Kruger National Park and the surrounding areas in South Africa. They have a dense mane and slightly larger body size than other African subspecies. These lions have adapted well to human presence to some extent, thanks to protection and management within the park. They exhibit typical hunting and social patterns of African lions.
