The Barbary lion, also known as the Atlas lion, was a majestic species of lion that once roamed North Africa. They were larger than other lion subspecies and had distinctive black manes that made them easily recognizable. Sadly, they were hunted to extinction in the wild in the 20th century, and only a few captive individuals remain in zoos. Efforts are now being made to reintroduce them into the wild, but it will be a long and challenging process. The Barbary lion’s extinction serves as a reminder of the devastating impact that human activity can have on wildlife, and the importance of conservation efforts to protect endangered species.

The Samson Lyons
Scar
Tiger no diffs💀💀💀
Barbary, not barbabry! If you want to see them come to the zoo in Rabat the capital of the kingdom of Morocco.
Fun fact: during the french colonization of morocco, the french used to hunt and kill those lions, so the locals were catching them and then sending those lions to the king so he can protect them. After the colonization was over, the late monarch of Morocco, king Hassan the second ordered the creation of a habitat to those majestic lions.
Sad tbh cape lion to
Thank God they still exist in zoos
Never heard of a Barbabary Lion
False the Royal collection of Morocco has 60 lions and the zoo 37 Rabat zoo
Beautiful
Where can we aee this magnificent animal?
Let's take care of animals and especially those that are in danger of extinction, the barbarian lion was the most successful in combats in Rome and it is smaller than the African lion, but it has a warrior's heart, let's not let what happens to it same to the tigers that are also in danger of extinction.
I hope one day His Majesty The Barbary Lion is seen roaming in his wild Kingdom. 😢
Ranking lion endangered species there are on by 39,000,of them in the world in India and Africa ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good job zoo’s🔥🔥🔥
Humans are the most dangerous thing in the world.
Even asian lions were bigger in past
Barbabary or Barbary?
"Went extinct in the wild in the 1960s". Very next video on the feed is of a wild Barbary lion from a year ago.
what an amazing creature
Babbar Sher
He is beautiful Lion
So is it ever extinct?
As a Berber, elders used to tell us story's about those mighty beasts, I feel sorry the only thing left of them is statues and cities named after them.
Barbary not Barbabry ok! BARBARY NOT BARBABRY
Y’all need to understand this! Captive roar could never compare to wild life pure raw roar
It’s breaking my heart tbh
Unfortunately they when… extinct because of human activities
Yes I know yes .. i heard that story before and it won't change.
Unbelievable!! We still don't learn a thing.. keep vanishing animal species until there are only us and chickens ..
There was one in the forest of Sheffa in Algeria in the Early 80's. He used to hunt the cows in nearby farms. People called him Lion Ben-Ouda 😅
what the Atlas lion have to do with "Egyptian"
Man we kill everything badass. Imagine all the incredible species we’ve made extinct
Can they beat Siberian and royal bengal tiger?
This shows how amazing humans are. No mighty beast can survive against our might!
a truly magnificent animal
Video sucks!
I THOUGHT THEY WERE COMPLETELY EXTINCT BUT I'M REALLY HAPPY THAT AT LEAST THEY EXIST IN ZOOS
Thanks to the King Mohammed V this beauty of a creature didn't vanish from this earth, it is known that the royal family of Morocco always preserves the most important and rarest items of Moroccan history and Atlas Lions were no exception.
When King Mohammed V was about to be exiled by the French Colonization he insisted on having those lions moved to a safe place and refuse to go before that.
this alone, makes me respect the royal family regardless of their shortcomings, dreaming of the day we build and manage a natural reserve that can be home to them and increase their population…that is one of my most important dreams ever.
also, it was not the lost of their habitat that almost cost us their existence, the Romans used to take so many of them just for the pleasure of watching them fight gladiators and such…and those lions were easily one of the most wild animals that could easily be domesticated and live side by side with humans without any fear or accidents…many photographs of my people gathering and talking with those Lions doing the same next to them without any fear.
Who else was expecting to hear the roar?
He looks scary and terrible
I hope people can get their numbers up and be able to reintroduce them back into the wild some how.
