In most of the Northern regions of Somalia, the lion population has been extirpated. However, some areas such as the Nugaal Valley, the Eastern part of the Golis Mountains, and the Sool and Cayn regions may hold few individuals. In these areas, killings of female camels by lions were reported during 2021. A lioness was last sighted on 24th April 2021 in the Geed-dheer and Cankalaalaad areas of the Widhwidh district in the Togdheer region. Lions have also been recently reported in the contested areas between the Somaliland and Puntland, which people and livestock tend to avoid due to recurrent conflicts. There have been no recent lion sightings in central Somalia.
