Not all male or female lions are birds.
I think. It may be only one of the two, but I don't know enough about the sexual dimorphism of the lions which are birds to tell the difference.

It may be I have a pretty little list of all things which are birds and it just has "fish", as in like generic fish. I know I debated whether or not to say yes to clownfish, and eventually decided on yes; I think I did the same for catfish and said no. CONSISTENCY.

Birds are not famous for being on Youtube. Though I am pretty sure there is a video with all the birds in it, but they'd not really be famous.

Generic dogs are not birds (But specific types of dogs are).
Generic cats are birds (But there's still that pesky not all lions).

All birds are vertebrates, but not all vertebrates are birds
