For other uses, see Lion.

The lion (Panthera leo) was a Terran animal of the Felidae (cat) family. Though carnivorous hunters, lions were depicted in several Human cultures as strong and noble beasts, and dubbed as the "king of the jungle."

The Leo constellation, and the numerous astronomical objects bearing the name "Leo," are named for the lion.

Just after her 16th birthday in the year 2255, Nyota Uhura "killed" an automated robot lion with a spear in a traditional hunt in East Africa. (TAS - Log Ten novelization: The Slaver Weapon)

Cultural references[]

In a story from the Bible, a man named Daniel is thrown to the lions, but is protected by an angel of God. (TOS novel: Excelsior: Forged in Fire)
