Lions

Meet lions with flowing manes, playful cubs and groups of lions in peaceful savanna scenes. Choose simple outlines or detailed pictures with trees, flowers, rocks and rivers to print and color.

A front-facing lion or a moonlit scene?

Choose the size and direction of the mane strokes.

A lion stands on a rocky ledge and looks toward a crescent moon above flowing waterfalls and ferns.

Rock ledge and waterfalls

The side-facing lion stands above waterfalls, rocks and fern fronds beneath a crescent moon. Choose this for a longer landscape task.

Frame the face with the mane

Print the original line drawing linked below. The numbered areas match the color key and steps; use the colored example as a starting point, then choose your own colors if you prefer.

Digital coloring example

Golden lion with a brown mane and tail tuft beneath a pale yellow sun; the surrounding landscape stays white.
A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.
  • 1. Golden lion
  • 2. Brown mane and tail tuft
  • 3. Yellow sun
  1. Color the face, outer ears, body, legs, paws and tail stem golden tan. Leave the muzzle, nose, chin tuft, inner ears and eye highlights white.
  2. Color all flowing mane strands and the tail tuft brown, keeping their dividing lines visible.
  3. Fill the visible sun disk pale yellow. Leave clouds, hills, plants, rocks and the rest of the sky white.

The white muzzle should stay distinct from the golden face and brown mane. You can stop with the landscape uncolored.
