Question

How many desert lions are left?

Answer ( 1 )

  1. Today, the official estimate is around 112-139 animals — though Smit says is it’s more like only 85-95 lions. This after the population hit a high of 150 in the early 2000s. The lions’ recovery remains hugely imperiled by human-wildlife conflict and trophy hunting.
