The Prey of the Asian Lion (outside India)
Richard Lydekker (who was one of the most renowned naturalists of his time) wrote that the staple food for lions in Persia was the wild boar. The information is from his book, The Royal Natural History
Quote:It has been already mentioned that in the oak forests of Persia the staple food of the lions is formed by the wild pigs which frequent these woods.

I would like to add that wild boars in Iran are no joke.

Vladimir Georgevich Hepter wrote about the ungulate prey of lions in the Caucasus. Mammals of the Soviet Union
Quote:All these supported a large number of deer, roe deer, wild boar, while in the steppes were large numbers of goitered gazelle and kulan. Huge reserves of ungulates were available to lions as food (cheetah also fed on them). The disappearence of lion is naturally associated with an increse in human population and a change in environmental conditions, which in turn led to an impoverishment of ungulates in the country ; thus, kulan had disappeared from the Trans-Caucasus in the thirteenth century.

A Mughal painting of a Dervish with the 2 species (the yellow cat appears to have stripes, rather than rosettes, plus it's as big as the brown cat) at the Kupferstichkabinett Berlin, circa 1650 (during the reign of Shah Jahan, who built the Taj Mahal, and had hunted lions in the area of Burhanpur, in what is now Madhya Pradesh): https://wildfact.com/forum/topic-lions-and-tigers-in-india?pid=121981#pid121981

"Live today"
I believe there are some asiatic lions feasting (with the voice we heard, the male with the belly fold coming in...), but no one indication...

Benerghatta NP Asian lions seems to be descended from robust founder stock wild gene pool. They have awesome manes and great physique.

(From 2:20)
They look like hybrids & Africans... Faces are nothing like Asiatic lions & that's why their manes are big.
Many African lions had been rescued from Indian circuses after the ban & now are living in Bannerghatta.
RE: Asiatic Lion - Data, Pictures & Videos - Rage2277 - 07-24-2020
they look african those can't be asiatic or atleast pure ones @Sanju
