10 Animals that are a lot bigger than you often think

6. Manta Ray

 Manta rays are large rays belonging to the genus Manta. The larger species, M. birostris, reaches 7 meters across (23ft). That’s about a meter more than the width of a racquetball court.

7. Lion

 
Widely known as the “king of the jungle” (don’t really know where this title came from since they’re normally found in grasslands and open woodlands), a mature male lion can exceed 250 kg (550 lb,) that’s about the weight of two men like Brock Lesnar.
