Talk:Night Pride/@comment-1584640-20190901093607

So far the names of the lions of the Night Pride appear to be Indian in origin. The names of the lions in Simba’s Pride and the Outsiders are mainly Swahili so they are of the Southern Lion subspecies (Panthera leo melanochaita). This means that the lions of the Night Pride are Asiatic, or a population of the Northern Lion subspecies (Panthera leo leo). I know that there used to be several lion subspecies, but somehow recent taxonomy recognizes only two.
