Big kitty meow! People know lions roar, but did you know tigers and other big cats can be vocal too? Big cats use roars, purrs, growls, and chirps to establish territory, search for a mate, or just to express themselves. Morgana often “talks” like this when the keepers clean her room behind-the-scenes! | Potawatomi Zoo

VOLUME UP - A Lion's Roar can be heard for 5 miles and the sound can reach up to 114 decibels! The roar normally lasts between 30 and 60 seconds and is used as a means of communication, for instance to warn off predators (marking their territory) or to announce their availability to mate. #lion #bigcats #bigcatrescue #volumeup #roar #wow #amazing #rainbow #blastfromthepast #daily #coolcats #fun #educational | Big Cat Rescue
