Barbary, my photo. Dont be confused by the scene, according to the breeder the female is the dominant one. Well...dominant...she is more grumpy, while the male is more reasonable and avoids confrontation.

father of that male above. Probably the tallest felid I have ever seen. Not my photo


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

My photo. The male is 6yo. He is tall and I would say that he is over 200 kg, so definitely huge. The lioness is of average size. Sometimes it is said that barbary lions are the biggest subspecies. I have seen 6 males and 6 - 8 females. 1 male, the very tall Simon (see above) is impressive, but probably not so heavy, because his body is cheetah - like. His 3 sons (this is one of them) are tall (but not as tall as him) but more robust. Another male (not related, at least not closely) was of average weight (my estimate...around 180 kg). And another male was definitely small. And lionesses? All of them were of average size, if not even smaller. So...

Not all barbary lions are big. This is not my photo (I have just blurred the face of that guy) but I have seen this lion in persona many times


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

They say that this is babrbary (not my photo)


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

this is probably amur male, judging by the size (not my photo)


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

Amur, but I dont know which gender. The human is slovakian female. Not my photo, I just blurred the face.


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

I think this photo is known, but why not to remind it? This sould be adult amur male and adult slovakian male.


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

slovakian female, amur female and amur male (probably)


RE: Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity - Amnon242 - 03-15-2020

amur...not my photo
