Everybody dreams of a lion with a great dark mane.Unfortunately they are rather rare, you will only find them on the big savannas were no thorn bushes will tear and wear the mane down.

I sent a picture of a lion mating pair to Saeed a couple of days ago. Maybe he will be so kind a put the picture into this post. Here you will see a nice dark maned lion (not black maned but dark maned. The picture was taken i Tanzania in the 80ties).

Who shot him? No-one, you do not shoot at lovers!

Besides, when you see lions mate but are to slow with your camera, just sit still for twenty minutes and they are at it again.
It is estimated a lioness mates 5000 times during her life span. Well ladies and gentlemen, what do you say about that?

That's only once a day for a little over thirteen years, with time off for the Super Bowl. Lots of guys do that. Not with a lion, of course.
