Answer 1

Heya!

Here's your required answer!

They went to the lion, didn't they?

Now the question is :

◆ What are question tags?

It's a grammatical usage which turns a positive sensed sentence [declarative or assertive] in to a negatively sensed sentence and vice versa.

Hope this helps you!

Answer 2

A tag question is a question added at the end of a sentence. A tag question following an affirmative statement generally has the form of a negative question, with the meaning: Isn't that true?

Note: While using a question tag, we must keep the tense of the given sentence in mind. 

The appropriate question tag for the given sentence is as written below:

They went to the lion, didn't they?

Since the sentence is in Simple Past Tense, we will use the Simple Past Tense helping verb 'didn't' as question tag.
