Lions in Narnia
Lions are not common background creatures in the Narnia stories, because one lion towers above every other association: Aslan. Even so, the race label can still be useful on the site as a way to group lion-formed figures and note the symbolic weight Lewis gives to leonine imagery.
Aslan should not be flattened into an ordinary animal category. He appears as a lion, but he stands apart from created beings as the great kingly presence at the center of Narnia. This page exists mainly to support reference structure and to mark that difference clearly.
