{'national animal': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'elephant': [2, 0, 0, 0], 'rhinoceros': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'tiger': [8, 0, 4, 8], 'lion': [1, 0, 0, 0]}

The correct answer is option 4, Tiger. The Tiger is the National Animal of India.

Option 1, Elephant, is not the National Animal of India. Although the Elephant holds cultural significance in India and is widely seen as a symbol of power and wisdom, it is not the designated National Animal.

Option 2, Rhinoceros, is also not the National Animal of India. The Rhinoceros is found in some parts of India, particularly in national parks and sanctuaries, but it does not hold the status of being the National Animal.

Option 3, Lion, is not the National Animal of India either. Lions are not native to India and are mostly found in the Gir Forest National Park in the state of Gujarat. The Lion is the National Animal of another country, which is not India.

In conclusion, the correct answer for the National Animal of India is option 4, Tiger. Tigers are widely revered in Indian culture and have been chosen as the National Animal for their strength, beauty, and importance in the ecosystem.
