| Mar 30, 2017 at 15:38 | comment | added | David K | The answers to this question are all good. At least, that was true when I wrote this comment referring to the four answers visible on this page at that time. If I had not written "the" at the beginning of this comment, it would still be grammatically correct and meaningful but its truthfulness would be more dubious. | |

| Mar 29, 2017 at 14:34 | comment | added | Dr. Funk | Do you mean "Lions kept in zoos are aggressive"? Or do you mean "These specific lions at this specific zoo are aggressive"? | |

| Mar 29, 2017 at 9:50 | comment | added | J.R.♦ | India is a lot bigger than a zoo, so there's more room for flexibility. | |

titles are not for the text you are asking about. (Put that text in your question body, and give your question a more concise title.)

| Mar 29, 2017 at 9:27 | comment | added | Tom | @fixer1234, there is no wrong to say "Lions in India are very aggressive". Then, what is the difference between "India" & "The zoo"? | |
| Mar 29, 2017 at 9:26 | comment | added | Tom | @fixer1234, but what about "general lions at a specific zoo"? | |
