If you can't remember lioness vs lion, try Talisman's song Zanzibar, זנזיבר טליסמאן A chorus line: כמו לביאה ואריה יה יה Like lioness & lion yeah yeah (... In a crazy jungle that has no end). Zanzibar: https://youtu.be/FC7_XEHNHIs

The audio is correct. It's the normal way most Israelis pronounce ה. It's a bit faint, but it's there.
I'm a learner not a speaker so I only know the translated version of this from the Wikipedia site, http://hebrew-academy.org.il/2015/03/02/%D7%94%D7%90%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%94-%D7%95%D7%A9%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%AA%D7%99%D7%95/
You mean adolescent lion? I I've only seen it as female form /lioness , or via Yiddish/Ashkenazi like Ljeb, lowe, Lew, Lewek, etc. (Who knew if you thought someone's name was Ari, in the records it could be written as Löwe).

This exercise does want us to type "the lion"/האריה
Probably since it just one letter omitted, it is counting it correct but with a typo...I think that is usually what DuoLingo does for a one-letter error.

In everyday speech, Israelis pronounce ה very softly, almost as if it weren't there, so you are hearing it correctly.
