•  Weak oppose per Karelj. I think a close crop to basically a headshot of the animal might work better, if it would be large enough ... the look in his eyes and the blood around his mouth really tell a story that's not as evident at this size. Daniel Case (talk) 04:21, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
•  Support Isn’t the fact that the lion cub is barely visible against the natural background actually a feature – it protects the cub against enemies and helps the lion to reach its prey because the lion is recognized later? --Aristeas (talk) 07:57, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

• The orange colour comes from the sands of the Kalahari. I have a different image (not a crop) which some may prefer. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:46, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

• Even better in my view, yes. Let's see if that one succeeds, otherwise the head is worth a nomination. Very striking -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:44, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
