Answer:

was reading a paragraph about lions and I came up with a question about the definite article (the).

Let me tell you first what I know about it.

1->We use the before a singular noun (when we are sure about the noun. And the listener and the speaker both know about it).

2->We use the before a plural noun (again when we are sure about the noun, and we are not talking generally).

So, my question is why does the writer use the here as we are not talking about any specific lion or lions. We are talking generally.
