A male lion is depicted lying on its left side on dry, light brown to grayish-brown earth. Its eyes are closed, indicating a state of rest. The lion possesses a substantial, shaggy mane, predominantly golden-brown with darker shades towards the body and lighter, almost bleached ends around its face and muzzle. Its muzzle is lighter in color, and a dark nose is visible. Sparse tufts of dry, light-colored grass and plant debris are scattered across the ground in the foreground and midground. A small portion of a light-colored tail tip is visible in the upper right background, extending from an unseen body. The environment is consistent with dry, open terrain. This scene occurs in the city of Unknown, Tanzania.
