The Water Lion is described as a large, lion-like creature with aquatic adaptations, including webbed paws, sleek fur, and a muscular tail that aids in swimming. Unlike a typical lion, the Water Lion’s fur has a wet, oily sheen, often reported as blue-gray or dark brown, which helps it blend into its watery habitat. It is said to have a distinct roar that echoes across water bodies, similar to both a lion’s roar and a low rumble, resembling the sound of distant thunder.
