Among the extinct genera of this family include the mammoths.

Some males, exceptionally large, weighing up to 250 kg, making them the second-largest living cat after the tiger. Wild lions live in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia with a critically endangered population in northwest India, having disappeared from North Africa, the Middle East and western Asia in historic times. Until the late Pleistocene, about 10 000 years ago, in large terrestrial mammals, the lion was the most widespread after humans. They were found in most of Africa, much of Eurasia from western Europe to India, and America, from the Yukon to southern Mexico.

DON'T YOU REMEMBER

When will I see you again?
You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said,
No final kiss to seal any seams,
I had no idea of the state we were in,

I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,

But don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before,
Baby, please remember me once more,

When was the last time you thought of me?
Or have you completely erased me from your memory?
I often think about where I went wrong,
The more I do, the less I know,

But I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,

But don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before,
Baby, please remember me once more,

Gave you the space so you could breathe,
I kept my distance so you would be free,
And hope that you find the missing piece,
To bring you back to me,

Why don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before,
Baby, please remember me once more,

When will I see you again?
