After finding this beast Hercules attack with his arrows and bow but due to his golden fur all had vein it was a protective layer of lion. After that Hercules let him go in his cave.
There was two opening of cave Hercules closed one and entered from the other and attacked the lion with his club (a strong wooden stick) and using his strength he killed the lion.

Second labour of Hercules was to kill a Hydra (a snake) in the lake Hercules closed his mouth and nose for his protection and then attacked with his cub and killed.
