Yes. It is wide animal and government not allowed anyone to keep it as a pet. 

Answer 2

Keeping a lion as a pet is not the wisest thing to do. A lion is a wild cat that belongs to the wild. No matter how gentle they are at young age, they still grow to be wild because it is in their nature. 

Keeping a lion at home isn't even legal as it is a danger to your life and property as well as others. The zoo is safer where they are kept under strict precaution and then people can visit. 

Answer 3

First of all, I don't think lions should be treated as pets like cats and dogs. They are wild animals, and therefore should live in the wild where they play a significant role in being the apex predator. Relatedly, lions cannot be easily tamed as their behavior is of typical hunter hunting for its prey. Thus, it would be very dangerous for someone to keep a lion as a pet.

Answer 4

Lion is a wild animals and as such its natural habitat is in the wild where he can hunt, reproduce and keep the natural population growing. I don't support the idea of petting lion at home, the reason animal right organisations are against animal captivity. Like humans, animals too deserves freedom, and most specie of lions are considered endangered, and continuous captivity will lead to dwindling population before extinction. So the answer is no

Answer 5
