The Nemean Lion was gifted with supernatural mystic powers and was virtually undefeatable.
With all the same features of a normal lion, amplified strength, along with impenetrable skin - this vicious beast seemed unstoppable.
Not a single man made weapon could damage or cut through this formidable mythical beast's hide.
It terrorized and killed many people near and around the ancient city of Nemea with, what seemed to be a ravenous taste for blood.
Selene, the moon goddess adored this beast greatly. In some accounts, Selene and Zeus are said to have been the actual proud parents of this indestructible feline.
Hercules was commanded by King Eurystheus to kill the lion, which he succeeded in doing by using his super human strength.
