There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Lumpy means fat as skin can appear discontinuity due to fat accumulation.

Both lions have layer of fat. The mabula lion has moderate fat and doesn't have excess fat and what makes you think this lion is overweight when it's actually not. Even if he had excess fat, his tail would be more thicker which this lion doesn't have.

Obviously he does have visible muscle definition from what I just posted and a lack of definition has nothing to do with the layer of fat that runs across the Lions midsection. 

"Lumpy,'' how you're trying to use it doesn't mean fat as numerous things contribute to lumps, while they themselves may be made from fat that's not a sign of an overweight cat. Hence as you see in older cats they have many growths throughout their body, same happens to humans. 
Your claim about tail also has nothing to do with fat, it is going to show the least amount of difference since it carries such a minimal amount of body fat compared to the stomach. 
It's the obvious that Lion has a layer of fat that spans across it's midsection, when he gets up it sways about.
