Thanks your the answers, but, Chinese has been misleaded by the Scholars that both sex of the lions have manes. In US, there are lions at the MGM casino in Las Vegas, it is free to watch. But, the problem are those Chinese in China are still misleading, they don't want to accept the fact. Two lions with manes, they call it male and female lions (左雄右雌) and they even claim it is the ancient chinese tradition !!!

Hello Wozitoya,

The males do have manes, females don't !
