In reply to sword. Thanks for your interest in the site. There is plenty of the genetic evidence on the distinctiveness of various lion populations, including the Asiatic lion (P. l. persica) in India and this is discussed in many articles on this site (recent work by Barnett et al. (2014) is mentioned here), so please check them out. Overall the work on the site represents outputs from many collaborations with scientists in Africa, India, the Middle East and Europe. This particular article aims to raise some of the contemporary questions concerning lions and points out clearly that Thapar and his co-writers concede that they examine this as naturalists and historians, rather than from a deep scientific examination of evidence. There is growing evidence which describes the link between contemporary and historical lion population in India, across the middle east and into North Africa, as a separate group from sub-Saharan African lions. This evidence is mentioned in the article and points to Asiatic lions as being distinct and geographically long-established in the region. I am glad that the post sparked some interest.

It takes over 5,000 years for their dna coding to change, indian lions have african genetic because they evolved from africa through the middle east, valmik doesnt have any basis of lions not being native only from the theory that tigers drove them out, his assertion of lions brought over by crates doesnt explain that genetically lions evolved differently. Valmik is disputed by the scientific community entirely, and the lions historical basis is assertive to be the oldest big cat in india. Try contacting 10 historians specifically on indian lions that major on them in the 16th century and you’d get a better idea in how much lion records valmik is either hiding or just ignorant about.

First it is difficult to know what a pure Barbary lion is (i.e. using genetic information) since there are only small fragments of DNA extracted from a very small number of museum specimens (150 – 200 year old minimum). Any comparisons to modern lions can only be made with these tiny fragments and they only identify the maternal relatedness. This means even hybrid lions might not be detected as having ‘Barbary genes’. Theoretically if we knew the level of hybridisation in individual animals we could breed back to a reasonably pure Barbary lion. The science needs to catch up. At this stage it is our best assumptions to keep the animals known to be descendents of the King of Morocco’s collection separate form other lions, until we have the technology and will to manage specific selective breeding programme.

In reply to lucass22056. This is one of the captive lions descended from animals in the Moroccan Royal Collection. Most of these animals are very interesting specimens, particularly the males with their distinctive muzzle shape and magnificent mane.

嘿，西蒙，就是我)沉默之后，我准备了一些问题。其中有一些是您认识的，但也许您可以给我一些关于这个项目和他的发展的最新信息?另外，还有一件事我想建议:不久前我访问了世界自然基金会的网站，发现了一些有趣的新闻。俄罗斯准备了一个在高加索地区重新引进波斯豹的绝妙计划。该项目始于三年前，现在世界自然基金会准备将两只幼豹放归野生动物。所以，也许你会和世界自然基金会分享重新引进巴巴里狮子的想法，这会更成功吗?
希望你能尽快回答)

In reply to lucass22056. There is no realy well-establised evidence about Barbary lions being bigger than other lions. Measures of length, height, body mass are difficult to compare without standard field methods. Hunters are also prone to exaggeration! The babrabry lion is usually described as a 'medium sized lion'. What appears to be unusual is its body size (depth of chest) relative to its leg length - you get realtively thick-set animals. Of course in males there is also the shaggy mane which amplifies the size of the animal. Have a look at the blog "Big shaggy beast & other myths". The biggest animal in captivity that I have seen was a male at Port Lympne which weighed 250kgs in the 1980s, which is truly huge (siberian tiger size), although I do not know what condition the animal was in, although I discussed this with his keeper and it appears the animal was in its prime. I personally have seen a captive late-adolescent/young adult male weighed in at 185kgs during a transfer - large compared to average sub-saharan or Indian animals in the wild.
