Lion Family Pride

Meet the whole pride on one page. A maned father lion sits beside a sleek lioness, with a small cub posed in front of them, all three facing forward wearing warm, friendly expressions and a few grass tufts scattered around their feet. Because there are three lions to color, this page keeps little artists busy and lets them tell each one apart by giving the father his big mane, the lioness her smooth head, and the cub its baby-sized body. The outlines are medium-weight and clear, friendly for elementary-age colorists. In real life a pride is a close family group of related females, their cubs, and a few males who defend the territory together. It is the only big cat that lives in such social groups. Print it on US Letter or A4 paper and color a happy family portrait.
