An intimate and stunning photo portrait of the last remaining Asiatic lions fighting for survival in

[The Dragon Master]

These pictures show some of the only Asiatic lions left on Earth which roam freely in a forest in India.



Taken by award-winning wildlife photographer Uri Golman they show the rare species in their natural environment in the Gir Forest in the western state of Gujarat.



There are only about 411 of the big cats, including 150 adults, left in the wild but according to scientist Dr Luke Hunter they are quickly outgrowing their habitat and one of their only chances of survival is relocation.

They are so beautiful!

I hope they are able to relocate these beautiful animals before they become extinct.
