Lions and Leopards and Bears ... Oh My!

You'll find lions, leopards, and bears (no tigers), along with nearly 100 other animals, insects, and creatures in the pages of the Bible. I think it's safe to assume that God is an animal lover. Although the names of Bible animals vary from one translation to another and sometimes these creatures are difficult to identify, God's Word showcases numerous members of the animal kingdom.

Adding to the Bible Facts & Lists section of the site, I've put together a complete listing of Bible animals based in the New Living Translation with Scripture references provided for each animal.
