It's difficult to accurately measure the speed of the worlds fastest lion, because there is no way to measure the speed of every lion in the wild. Most sources say 50mph so using logic, no lion has run more than 55mph tops...

Which sound travels faster the roaring sound of a lion or the buzzing sound of a mosquito?

According to the Bible, a lion roars when it has prey. The question is asked in Amos 3:4, "Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey?" The context of the verse is that, no, he will not. The lions roar brings fear to the lions prey, thus Amos 3:8 says, "The lion hath roared, who will not fear?" The roaring of the lion when he has prey causes fear in the victim and this fear makes escaping harder for the victim and thus aids the lion in capturing his food. "Their roaring shall be like a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it" Isa 5:29
