'''Lions''' are animals that spawn in the grasslands and forests of [[Far Harad]]. They are revered as a symbol of strength by the [[Morwaith (Faction)|Morwaith]] people, who use a lion on their banner. Lions are neutral to the player, and will not attack unless provoked.

This animal has two genders: the male lion, and the female lioness. They are identical in all aspects except for appearance, and that when breeding lions, you must breed a lion with a lioness.

== Behaviour ==
Lions and lionesses are neutral animals and tend to wander aimlesly about. However, if attacked by a player or NPC, they will fight back by chasing and biting their enemy, dealing 3 points of damage at a time. Lions will also retaliate against anyone who attacks nearby cubs.

A lion may occasionally chase passive animals like zebras or gemsbok, which will in turn flee from them. However, unlike [[crocodile]]s, lions do not kill these targets. They simply end the pursuit after a random amount of time.

==Breeding==
Lions can be fed with raw fish ([[File:Fish.png]]) to let them mate. If a fed lion and a fed lioness are close to each other, they will mate and a new baby lion will spawn. Baby lions grow to maturity after some time (<!--Information not confirmed-->approximately 20 minutes).

== Drops ==
Lions and lionesses drop [[Lion Meat|their meat]] ([[File:LionRaw.png]]) and [[Lion Fur|fur]] ([[File:LionFur.png]]). Their meat can be cooked ([[File:LionCooked.png]]), and their fur can be made into a [[Lion Fur Bed|bed]] ([[File:Lion Fur Bed.png]]) or some [[Morwaith Chieftain Armour|armour]] ([[File:HelmetMoredainLion.png]]).

Since {{Update|34}}, there's a slim chance on a [[Rugs|lionskin rug]] ([[File:LionskinRugs.gif]]) as a trophy for your big game hunt. But beware: lions will not go down without a fight. Male and female lions drop different types of rugs.

== Trivia ==
* Lions and lionesses were added from Mevans' previous mod, the Lion King mod. They were given new models and textures in {{Update|22}}.
* The [[Morwaith (Faction)|Morwaith]] have a god called the "Great Lion" and every new tribe warrior must kill a lion to prove his strength.
*Often, Morwaith will offer miniquests to kill lions.
