What is the difference between wolves and lions?

Answer 1

They are from different species. Wolves are actually members of the canine (dog) family, although most people don't associate them with the domestic or friendly behavior of a dog. The lion is in the cat family, and in the same species as panthers and tigers. Wolves tend to be smaller than lions; wolves have a coat of fur, and do not have the mane that a lion has. Wolves often live in forests, mountains, and even in the Arctic. Lions tend to live in hot, grassy places, and they can also be found in the bush; these days, they generally live in Africa. Communication-wise, most wolves tend to make howling noises, while lions tend to growl loudly. But both wolves and lions are predators and meat-eaters, and kill smaller animals for food.
