C-Boy(2018年6月去世,年齡約14歲)是曾經生活在坦桑尼亚塞伦盖蒂国家公园的一頭雄性獅子[1]。他在2009年8月被綽號「殺手」的雄獅帶領另外兩頭獅子群體襲擊。襲擊發生後,他幾乎死於感染,不過公園保護官員發現他倖存了下來,經過國家地理報導後而被知其名[2]。攝影師Nick Nichols在2011年至2013年期間訪問塞倫蓋蒂時為他拍了照片[3][4]。那場襲擊發生後的十年,C-Boy被發現死亡多日而原因不明[1]。
C-Boy是兩頭雄獅Snyggve和Tryggve的父親[5]。Snyggve在他的兄弟協助下統治塞倫蓋蒂草原7年,兄弟倆因大自然因素於2023年3月先後去世[6][7]。
