Didn't they stop leaving Africa after they made the canal in Egypt?

No retard, they were extinction'd from southern Europe by 500s.

Okey but I think they went extinct here after the canal.....

I remember that the Japanese were inspired by the emblem of the Mauryan Empire which had 4 Lions and thus created their own variation... but the “lions” don’t look like Lions as in the Indian version but became a completely different creature entirely almost as if somebody tried to reconstruct what a lion looked like by literary description.

but this map suggests that Lions were never present in Arabia

DID YOU STEAL CASPIAN SEA TOO POLE?

what is that brown dot in India?
do wild Lions really live there?

holy shit that's right
where the fuck is Caspian Sea?

Honestly as much as I hate Zig Forums sometimes, learning that today was actually pretty cool. Did not know that there were lions in Europe.

well Greeks had to know Lions while creating stories about Hercules for example

In the northern parts definitely
But if I remember correctly I think I've seen a really old drawing in rocks south of Arabia depicting people hunting a lion

yes but they're low test lions
at the top is an asiatic lion compared to an african lion at the bottom

All kinds of mad stuff used to be here. My local museum has a skeleton of a hippo in it that was found near the Thames

Even African animals have high test.. wtf is going on? Why is Africa so strong?

why does it look so miserable?

AFRIKA blesses its subjects with bountiful testosterone
low t

True but I figured that was from trading with africans or some shit.

the morrocon dinasty has been trying for years to breed back the barbary lion

what's the next vid going to be about, Shirvan?

based
fuck violent animals, i'm sure africans really love to fear for their lives every time they go outside because a western city boy thinks a 100kg heavy psychopath cat who eats his own babies is cute and should be defended

btw some historians think that Lions might also live in Italy, Southern Spain and possibly even southern France

reminder that savage unhumane british and french in the 1800s and 1900s hunters drove the north african/barbary/atlas lions, which are the biggest and best looking species of lions because of their dark mane, to the brink of extinctions in the wild
think about that whenever you try to flaunt your moral superiority

Yes I've seen maps like yours but they include basically all Spain and Italy and the strip of France that joins them. Also basically all the Balkans and the Arabia that isn't unlivable desert .

Remember that savage unhumane Frenchs dried your swamps and replaced them with fertile land when your economy consisted of attacking lone ships
think about that whenever you try to flaunt your moral superiority

OP, you did this to yourselves : with all your damnatio ad bestias & recreational hunts,etc... Now the most exotic stuff in Europe are deers & wolves. Shouldn't have exterminated the others.
AFRICAN MIGHT BABYYYYY

Mon pote, les lions, crocodiles et autres sont pas communs comme les chats. C'est pas en te baladant dans un boulevard de Kinshasa que tu vas en croiser un!
Amin.

reminder that Europe civilized Africa, but I guess it wasn't worth it since a few kitty cats died

Mon pote quand j'étais en Afrique les tiens se faisaient amputé le bras par des pythons tout ça pour un salaire de misère parce que les européennes veulent du cuir de qualité pour leur sac à main

Ca a l'air vraiment génial d'avoir une nature, mais pour des raisons totalement inexplicable le rêve de la jeunesse locale c'est de s'enfermer dans des HLM européens dans un enfer de béton

>he doesnt know about the spanish city of León

Le mec te parle de nature exotique et mentionnant Kinshasa

the name of POLISH city of Lwów also comes from Lion (Lew = lion)
latin name of the city is Leopolis

*Ukrainian

EVROPA USED TO HAVE LIONS? VGHHH

>Decorates buildings with statues of lions
>Nobody has seen a lion before

How the fuck did they know?

Oh mais je suis d'accord que c'est dégueulasse aussi, je te l'accorde...
Les "djeuns" ont une vision étroite et stupide des choses, effectivement, à glorifier les ghettos urbains au lieu de se trouver un lopin de terre au calme avec une villa (à la campagne ou "au pays") avec un diplôme valable et un haut salaire en poche! Faut blâmer certains rappeurs français qui ont mal dit les choses à ces gamins, je pense.

Maybe imported as something excentric, maybe asiatic lions were there too. Keep in mind though, these statues represent dog-lions.

On est d'accord alors

they just mimic whatever India has without understanding it

We had a small population of elephant in Sicily after the fall of the Roman empire. Basically they were elephants bred in "farms" to perform manual labor and to be used in war, but when the empire fell down they got freed and became feral again, lmao. It's a shame they only lasted around 2-3 centuries and then gor extincted again
