Why Do Lions Have Manes?

Male lions in the wild are truly magnificent creatures. With their power, beauty, and majestic manes, they rightfully deserve the title of “King of the Jungle”. At the onset of their sexual maturity, male lions begin to grow thick manes around their head, neck, and underbelly which distinguishes them from their female counterparts. As males age, their manes also grow thicker and darker, making them look more intimidating which in turn helps them to maintain their territory by preventing young males from challenging them.
