Hello, Thank you for contacting Animal Jam Support Headquarters! It's super wild to hear your enthusiasm to become the fiercest lion in all of Jamaa. Taking the crown may require some patience, but with help from your Jammer friends, we're sure you'll be roaring around Jamaa as a mighty lion in no time!
Keep your eyes peeled for lions in Jamaa, coming out soon. And who knows? Maybe you'll be roaming Jamaa as King of Jungle!
We're also happy to tell you that if you purchase an Animal Jam gift card, you can choose a lion avatar as your gift. These special gift cards will be available at Safeway stores in mid-October, or at Toys R Us in early November.
Good luck, Jammer. We can't wait to adventure with you as a lion!And remember, Play Wild!
