Try replacing the line in lions.cfg with this:
CDPATH=.
(Yes, that's a period after the equality sign)

If that doesn't work, please show us a screenshot of the contents of your C:\TMP\LION directory.
Thank you for all the help. I did finally get it to work. Apparently it was a download error. It worked fine after I redownloaded and tried again. Now my only problem is figuring out how to mate and join other lions in a pride

I found this to work fine! All I had to do was put the period, then drag the .exe ontop of DOSBox. Thank you all!

i LOVED this game when I was younger. Been searching high and low for this and can't believe I actually found it again!

Only problem is no sound.
And also it seems to run fairly slow on Dosbox. I'm getting lots of lags and I'm not sure why. Any good fixes?

Dude,check the start of the forum!
Or u could just do what I say here-

Make a folder called (whatever u like to name it) but I'll call this 'A' file
Make another folder (whatever u like to name it) I'll call this 'B'
And u got the lion.rar right?
Extract it to yr desktop!
U should have a file called 'LION' now on yr desktop.
Put the extracted file 'LION' in one of yr named files.or for me,I'll put it in 'B'.
Next,put the 'B' file that has 'LION' file in it into 'A' file.
And now,open any file u like,go to drive C
(U still following me,right? )
And put 'A' file in it.
Now,close all folders...oh wait,go to 'LION' file,the one inside of 'A' and 'B' file...go to something called 'LION.CFG' if u can't see the extension,go to yr control panel and and press no hidding extension on the settings...
Change the 'LION.CFG' to 'LION.txt'.
Open 'LION.txt' with notepad....(notepad is avaliable in every computers no worries!)
And check if 'CDPATH=C:\LION' is there.if not,change it to exactly what I said....
Ok,now yr done,click the x button,and click 'save changes'.
Change the 'LION.txt' back to 'LION.CFG'.
Close that folder
Yr almost done~
Now open dosbox and type this....(note, '' is used to say what file I'm using and what file u named it ok?
Mount c c:\'A'
C:
Cd Lion
Lion

Enjoy!
I'f this doesn't work,try asking for help cause I dunno.
Infomation gathered is thanks to the people who posted stuff here from pgs 1 to something
(I read them all lol!was rly funny )
Err,this is for anyone with the bug that is 'hr_hires' bug or for anyone that don't know how to use dosbox for lion.
Have fun! ^^

You're trying to run Wolf using the same directory and executable name as you did with Lion. That's definitely _not_ going to work.
Where did you unpack the game?

That doesn't give us anything as a base to determine what your problem is.
What is the first "it"? What is the second "it"?
