Daniel 6: 1-28
High officials in Darius’ government frame mischief against Daniel by having the king pass a law that places a 30-day prohibition on making a petition to any god or man other than the king. Anyone disobeying it is to be thrown to the lions. Daniel refuses to obey this law affecting his worship and turns to Jehovah in prayer. He is thrown into the lions’ pit. Miraculously, Jehovah’s angel shuts the mouths of the lions, and next morning King Darius is glad to find Daniel unharmed. The enemies are now fed to the lions, and the king issues a decree to fear the God of Daniel, as “he is the living God.” (6:26) Daniel prospers in government service on into the reign of Cyrus.

The King's administrators were jealous of Daniel because he liked Daniel a lot. He constantly called on Daniel and gave him and his friendsthe three high positions over the administrators. So, one day they got together and tricked Darius into making a decree that no one in the kingdom should worship anyone other than the king himself, otherwise they would be killed. Daniel continued to worship God and the admistratos told Darus and he put Daniel in the lion's den. He also told Daniel that he hoped that Daniel's God would save him. Daniel survived through God's will and wisdon and the administrators were thrown into a fire pit. After that Darius made a new decree that everyone worship Daniel's God, the one true God, the highest God.

King Darius planned to put Daniel over his kingdom 2 other administrators were jealous so they reported to the king that Daniel was Praying to his God. but they never said it was Daniel. The king had made a decree if anyone was caught praying to any other god or man other than the king, they would be thrown into the lions den.
They told the king it was Daniel who continued to pray to His God, so the king had to throw Daniel into the lion's den,
even though he didn't want to.
God sent His angel to protect Daniel, he shut the mouth of the lions.
When the king seen Daniel was still alive he was overjoyed.
When they lifted Daniel out of the den, no wound was found on him. The king knew it was becauses Daniel trusted God.
The king then had the men who falsely accused Daniel along with their wives and children thrown into the lions den.
Then the king wrote to all peoples, nations a decree that every part of his kingdom must fear and reverence the God of Daniel.
(Daniel 6:10-27)

The king's advisors were jealous of Daniel, and so tricked the king into proclaiming himself a deity for a day. Everyone had to worship him, and no other god. Daniel chose to worship God instead, as the advisors knew he would, and they confronted the king (Daniel's friend) with the facts. The king was forced to have Daniel thrown into the lion's den, where he stayed overnight. Miraculously, they didn't bother him at all. The next morning, the king called out for Daniel, and was relieved to learn that he was alive. He then had the advisors thrown in, and they were killed before they hit the ground.

Daniel was thrown into the lion's den because he was caught praying when there was an edict by Darius that prohibited it. He survived because God sent an angel to shut the lions mouths.

Darius's sorcerors were jealous of Daniel's success at solving the kings dreams, so they tricked the king into making a law that no one could pray to anyone but him. They knew that Daniel always prayed to God every day, and they knew that this law wouldn't stop him,. The punishment for breaking this law was to be thrown to the lions. So, when the time came, they arrested him and tossed him in. He survived because God shut the mouths of the lions. Daniel was faithful to God, and God rescued Him when he was punished for it.

He could Not Have Finished the Book of Daniel, had he been 'pet food.'
Perhaps you could read Daniel chapters 1 to 12 for yourself?

He got throuwn in there because Daniel would not give up his faith in God (Yahweh) and wold not worship other gods/the king.
He survived because God sent an angel/angels to protect him.
