Distribution and Population of Congo Lion

In the Congo River basin, Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the adjacent Queen Elizabeth National Park in Uganda may be a potential stronghold for lions in Central Africa, if poaching is curbed and prey species recover.
Lions are also present in Uganda's Kidepo Valley and Murchison Falls National Parks, in the Central African Republic, in Rwanda's Akagera National Park and in the south of Sudan.
In 2008, surveys were conducted in the Upemba and Kundelungu National Parks located in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, but no evidence of lion presence was found. There is a single Lion Conservation Unit in the Republic of the Congo, viz the Odzala National Park, where since 1995 no sign of lion presence was detected during surveys. In Gabon, lions may be extirpated as well.
