Question to Guate, Peter and other lion experts
According to classification of Lion (I read first from Gaute posts) Barbary Lion is same as Asiatic Lion. But when I see images of Barbary Lion (in captivity) Their physical appearance seems to be different from any other lion sub species including Asiatic. And its clearly very visible. Look at the following images
Barbary Lion form Hillside

Look at the face cuts. Certainly they are different then any other lion sub species.
I know science prove them same but the mind and vision do not agree on this.
Scientifically I am convince that they are same species but heart and vision say did science make error in this case ?
I want to hear your views, Apart of science
