Males and Females sleep up to 18-20 hours a day in most cases. Depending on how hot or if the weather is perfect than the lion will sleep. If the weather is good ther will sleep about 14-18 hours and go hunting or playing.
Lions also rest about 20 hours a day. In a sense, they have the life of kings. They eat, drink and sleep and do away with pests. This is why lions are considered the kings of the jungle.I once saw a documentary on lions. At the end of this documentary a pride of lions was being attacked by a pack of hyenas.
