poor fella passed away on 2012 at 14.

Is Zamba a real Barbary lion? She said he is a Barbary lion but I'm not sure.

Highly unlikely, possibly a zoomix/generic lion. But there may be a possibility that he may have some barbary / asiatic blood, not because of the mane (even lions in cold climate can grow huge manes and people instantly think having a huge mane extending up to their belly is a barbary lion and these traits were based on old descriptions of barbary lions.), but there were barbary lions and Asiatic lions (later got mixed with African lions) in the US in the past and Zamba may had a barbary or an asiatic great grandfather. Even the face, mane, body structure of an afro asiatic hybrid looks like an African lion. It's very hard to distinguish between an African lion and an Afro Asiatic mix. They look very alike.
