A male lion has a mane. A male tiger has a ruff. A lion's mane looks good on a lion but would look stupid on a tiger. Just the way it is. Sloth bears and Asian black bears also have a ruff.

I agree, we can't compare a "tiger mane" to a lions mane, but they are both distinctive and its interesting when some tigers develop this characteristic. But I'm with you, I prefer the maneless looks cause it really shows the muscle mass in their jaws. Like with Bhima from Kahna.

T-42's coat oddly looks like that of a Siberian Tiger, and usually, Siberians have a larger neck ruff than Bengals do. But in contrast, some state that Siberians are usually less aggressive than Bengals, and I don't really think that's true. Whether maned or maneless, aggression depends on the individual cat.

Speaking of the Siberian tiger, did you notice the 'beard' under its Caspian cousin's neck?

Coronavirus is wreaking havoc on everyone’s facial grooming regimen.

To be fair, it’s a pretty impressive tiger mane.

V7 has an epic ruff. In the second photo, you can see it growing on his neck as well.
