The lion is the largest member of the cat family, except for tigers. A full-grown male lion is about 3 feet high at the shoulder, about 7 feet long, and may weigh up to 500 pounds. It has a long tail that is tipped with a tuft（束） of dark hair. Many lions may reach a length of more than 10 feet from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail. Female lions, called lionesses, are slightly smaller than the males. The lion family lives together in a den（窝）, which is usually a cave – like hole hollowed out of a thick growth of bushes. The family will stay together, the grown-ups bringing the cubs（狮仔） food and teaching them to hunt, until the cubs are about two years old. Then the cubs go off to find their own mates. They are completely mature（成熟） at the age of 4 or 5 and will live for 15 to 20 years. Lions will kill only when they are attacked（进取） or hungry. They are equipped to be excellent hunters. They have very powerful muscles. They are equipped to be excellent hunters. They have very powerful muscles.
