Cape Lion or black lion . Extinct in 1860. This type of lion, who lived in South Africa, was discovered by the Boers - Dutch colonists - and they are usually attributed responsibility for their disappearance, when in fact it was the English hunters who decimated the population until it was extinguished, mainly because they attacked their cattle, but also as fun.
They were very similar to the lions that inhabit the rest of Africa, although with a slightly larger size and a more abundant and dark mane.
