Who Does Your Hair?

This is a captive lion in the Fort Worth, Texas zoo. I have always thought this was one of the best looking male lions I have ever seen. His mane always looks as if he just stepped out of a hair salon. Pretty impressive fellow. Comments and critiques welcome.

Jerry, he is a great looking lion. It looks just a tad soft to me, otherwise great photo. Thanks for sharing.

I guess it helps if you have a protected life, and are not out hunting, fighting over females, and doing other "wild lion" things!
Nice portrait of this very handsome fellow!

He truly is handsome. As if you could just walk up and pet.
